GOSPORT AND DISTRICT SPORTS ASSOCIATION FOR THE DISABLED

Sport and leisure for Disabled people in the district of Gosport. We cover any disabilty and any age.
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 and dynamic in terms of composition

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
