STREETLIGHT PROJECT 

StreetLight is an indoor Skate park and cafe. We run activities and events on the park, like Girl skate nights, who let the dads out, kids parties. and many more events. We also run in the cafe, film and discussion evenings. skater bible study. and lots of one off events. Through everything we do we aim to reach those who have not herd of Jesus and introduce them to him .
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
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
