POSITIVE PATH FOUNDATION

To promote social inclusion for the public benefit of adults from the age of 16 who have physical and learning challenges, areas covered are Hampshire and Dorset. Our charity prevents people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society by providing a safe environment for them to make friends.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly 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
