BRIGHTON AND HOVE SOCIAL WELFARE AND EDUCATIONAL TRUST LIMITED

Our main object is to promote voluntary and community activity within Brighton & Hove by providing support to community organisations, in particular to smaller organisations. This comprises Equipment services (Reprographics and Equipment for Meetings & Events), an Information service, and a Special Support service, including financial management support.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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 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

Established: 41 years
