THE TOGETHER CENTRE @ LOXLEY HOUSE CIO

The Together Centre Charity provides meaningful support services for local Families and Communities within a thriving Community Hub, and our ambition is to support and encourage empowering positive outcomes whilst demonstrating inclusive and equal participation for Tameside and it's wider Communities.

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
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
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
