LONGLANDS

Longlands offers alternative educational provision and mental health support to vulnerable young people within the therapeutic setting of an organic livestock farm on the border of Herefordshire and Worcestershire. Students study for qualifications in animal care, equine and land-based studies all within the context of meaningful work and alongside skilled and qualified tutors.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

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