CAMPHILL MILTON KEYNES COMMUNITIES LIMITED 

Our mission is to create a living and working community where adults with learning disabilities and those who support them may reach their full potential in the spirit of life-long learning.Over fifty residents live together with volunteer staff in ten separate households, forming an intentional community on several sites within the neighbouring areas of Pennyland and Willen Park in Milton Keynes.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
  • 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 is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return

Financial issues to consider:
