TARNER COMMUNITY PROJECT 

Tarner Community Project is a neighbourhood community organisation that delivers out of school activities and support services and activities to disadvantaged families, children & young people living in the Tarner and central areas of Brighton & Hove.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • 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 and a Community Foundation
  • The Board appears to be 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 was lower than spending in the latest year
Established: 11 years
