BARROW AND DISTRICT DISABILITY ASSOCIATION

The Barrow & District Disability Association provide activities & services to people with disabilities, and for their families & friends, & for those professionals interested in their welfares.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
