    YORK RI 

    Provision of Sport and Leisure facilities.
    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 including the Government

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
    • Income has been volatile recently
