ROOM AT THE INN AND THE 'Y' PROJECT

To relieve the needs of people who are homeless, in threat of homelessness or otherwise marginalised in Warrington for the public benefit by providing emergency accommodation, daytime services and information, support and activities to enable them to lead more settled lives.

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
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
Over half the Board have joined recently

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

Established: 6 years
