SOUTHDENE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

WE PROVIDE A SERVICE TO THE PUBLIC AS A COMMUNITY CENTRE

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there only 3 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

The latest accounts were qualified
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
