TEESDALE COMMUNITY RESOURCES

We provide resources and services for the local community of South West Durham. We have a particular focus on children, young people and families and bring together volunteers to enable aspirations to be met. We are based in a venue that provides rooms, accommodation, outdoor activities, music and community transport.
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 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
