MY FAMILY ORGANISATION 

We offer innovative programmes to support disadvantaged families in London. We are currently delivering a domestic violence perpetrator programme, a dating violence programme for 11-18year old girls, and a BME youth employment programme for 14 -18 year olds. Programmes offer mentoring, personal development training, peer motivators, counselling, job coaching and business startup support.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

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 4 years and the current period appears to have been extended
