BRADFORD DISABILITY FOOTBALL CLUB 

We have over 100 members who have a broad range of both physical and learning disabilities. We hold weekly football training which are accessible to anyone age 6 and over with a disability. We participate in competitive football matches and tournaments in disability football leagues. In addition to football sessions we offer social events and activities to our members.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
