GRENFELL CLUB

Our objectives over the year have been to promote the use of the Grenfell Club for children, young people and adults with learning and physical disabilities within the Borough of Redcar and Cleveland.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 3 trustees?
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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