YOH LTD 

YOH is a community led youth provision based in London and Essex, supporting young people who are marginalised, vulnerable or at risk of social exclusion. We aim to support the development of beneficiaries' aspirations, skills and confidence to pursue positive life ambitions and achieve economic independence, as well as providing a platform for our users to be heard and affect change locally.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending since inception
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

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
  • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
