OLD FIRE STATION STOKE NEWINGTON CIO

Management of Old Fire Station building at 61 Leswin Road, London N16 7NX for the benefit of the local community through provision of halls, offices and studios for long and short term hire.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
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
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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
