WOLLATON PARK COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

We run a community centre within which we hire out rooms to local groups such as Tai Chi, Slimming World, Singing for the brain, mens and ladies groups. We also hire out rooms to local residents for functions such as children's birthday parties. We also offer annual funded activities such as garden parties in the summer and a Christmas fayre.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
