YADA

To prevent the sexual exploitation of women and young people through: provision of support through our outreach service, across coastal West Sussex, to women in the sex industry; education, training and awareness raising workshops to community/voluntary sector organisations; partnership working to improve access to support; developing services to include prevention of Child Sexual Exploitation.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely 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
