MOSELEY & KINGS HEATH SHED 

The aim of Moseley and Kings Heath Shed is to contribute toward the improvement in both mental and physical health and well-being of (mainly) older people in these areas of Birmingham.We provide a physical space for members to socialise and engage in activities such as working with wood, metal, copper and leather and share their skills, knowledge and experience with others.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently
  • Latest return is overdue

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile recently
