TOTNES RURAL AREA YOUTH ENGAGEMENT PROJECT

TRAYE project provides youth services in Totnes and Buckfastleigh and 6 rural parishes, Dartington, Staverton, Marldon, Harberton, Holberton and Yealmpton; all are in South Devon.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending since inception
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
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is predominantly female

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 lower than spending in the latest year
