Positives:

Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appeared to be in excess of CC guidelines at the latest year end but this has been generated by an income surplus in the latest year and spending has been increasing rapidly

Progress against this outcome is measured by the national Early Years Foundation Stage assessment of a child’s physical, social and emotional, and cognitive, development at the end of the Reception Year. The results of the EYFS assessments are collected, monitored, and verified nationally. Thrive at Five has ambitious plans to work across a range of local authorities from an original pilot in Stoke on Trent. This is a core funding grant to help them learn and scale more widely
