BI PRIDE UK 

Bi Pride UK creates spaces for people who are attracted to more than one gender to celebrate their identities and be part of a welcoming community. We do this through working with local Prides to improve bi visibility and bi inclusion in their events, running our own annual Bi Pride event, and hosting virtual spaces and conversations for bi people to participate in.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
