FURNESS EDUCATION & SKILLS PARTNERSHIP

Furness Education and Skills Partnership works with schools and the wider community to help young people gain the skills, experience and confidence to have successful futures. We design and deliver projects and events which raise awareness of opportunities, develop skills and put learning into a real context for young people. Our work dovetails into that of the local Careers Hub.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending since inception
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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
There are only 3 trustees

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 was lower than spending in the latest year
