    WOMEN OF WORTH

    Women of Worth is a women's only community project providing specialist needs-led support services for women who are vulnerable, have multiple complex needs and who are often isolated and excluded from society because of their life style circumstances.We are based in an deprived area with socio-economic status is low and most of the families are on benefits.
    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 including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received

    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
