TENBURY NILS SCHEME 

The Tenbury NILS (No Interest Loan Scheme) is a project which seeks to assist the most disadvantaged and vulnerable people living in our community. It offers interest free loans to people who would otherwise not be able to access commercial credit, for reasons of unemployment, benefit recipients or people who are in receipt of a low income.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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 was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
