FOOTBALL UNITES RACISM DIVIDES EDUCATIONAL TRUST

The objects of the charitable company are to promote equality of opportunity and good relations between people of different racial groups, especially within the area of benefit, particularly through the medium of football and other amateur sports, recreational or leisure-time activities. The organisational activities of the FURD Trust are gradually being migrated across to the charitable company.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained

Established: 12 years
