Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data

After operating for fifteen years they need to secure a long-term space to cement the work they do with young people. Having a home would allow the organisation to be more sustainable and resilient, and respond more easily to demand and increase the number of beneficiaries. Funding has been requested from the Cultural Space Development Fund Pilot to engage a consultant to help secure a space and develop an operational business plan/structure.
