NORTHUMBERLAND NATIONAL PARK FOUNDATION

To support projects or activities that make Northumberland National Park and it's environs more accessible to people of all ages and abilities for the purposes of leisure and recreation.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and 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
