THE VICTORIA CENTRE

The Victoria Centre in Lydney promotes the welfare of the elderly, those with disability and others in need in any manner which is legal. This is mainly achieved by offering social contact, lunches and activities at the centre.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
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

Financial issues to consider:

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