PORTSMOUTH AND SOUTHSEA VOLUNTARY LIFEGUARDS

The aims and objectives of the Portsmouth & Southsea Voluntary Lifeguard Club are to train competent swimmers in the RLSS method of life-saving/lifeguarding, provide an inshore rescue boat service and to guard the local beaches to render them safer for bathers and boat users.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests 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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 51 years
