MY TIME FOR YOUNG CARERS 

My Time delivers free respite activities for young carers in and around Epsom and Ewell and Mole Valley. The charity runs activity clubs for children and young people aged between 7 and 15 in Ewell, Dorking, Fetcham and Worcester Park/Cuddington. Off-site holiday activities are organised as well.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
  • 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Established: 10 years
