AFEWEE TRAINING CENTRE

Afewee Training Centre is a multi-sport charity based in the Brixton Recreation Centre, Brixton, London. We use the sports of football and boxing to uplift and inspire the youth of the community, instilling discipline, work ethic and focus throughout each session as the centre point of success both in sport and life overall.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board composition very static?

Financial issues to consider:

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