BLUEPRINT TRAINING AND ENTERPRISE 

Our core aims are providing training opportunities to disadvantaged adults with a learning disability that are both affordable and interesting. Through activities and training opportunities at our workshop we enable disabled people increase social interaction within their local community, enhance their personal skills and provide them with worthwhile work and training opportunities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

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 has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 10 years
