QUEENSBURY SUPPORT CENTRE 

The Centre provides day care, on three days per week, for residents within the Queensbury area who, because of age and infirmity, would not have any social contact with their neighbours. Refreshments are provided throughout the day including a hot mid-day meal. A full programme of activities, entertainments and trips are organised with support given to ensure no-one is excluded.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 gender and dynamic in terms of composition

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
Established: 7 years
