WOMEN'S SPORT TRUST 

The objects of the Charity are to promote the participation of women and girls in sport, recreation and leisure by assisting with the provision of facilities, equipment and opportunities for women and girls in the interest of social welfare.
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 and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
