LYE COMMUNITY CENTRE

Lye Community Centre is the community hub for the residents of the diverse communities that live in Lye and the surrounding areas of the Dudley borough. In partnership with voluntary, community and corporate organisations we provide a range of services by hiring community space. We aim to ensure there is community cohesion in the access of the centre.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 4 trustees
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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