The object of the charity is to provide the provision and maintenance of a recreation ground, playing field, swimming pool and leisure centre for the benefit of the inhabitants of the area and visitors without distinction of political, religious or other opinions with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year but the charity has substantial reserves available
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
