FIRVALE COMMUNITY HUB

Support for marginalised people across Sheffield across the areas of legal advice, education, employability, community cohesion, social inclusion and reducing isolation. FCH works with people of all backgrounds, but has specialisms in working with BME communities - particularly those of Pakistani and Roma origin.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data

Established: 11 years
