ST MICHAEL'S AND LARK LANE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

Provision of leisure time activities and informal education opportunities, and to meet other needs for the residents of our catchment area, in a friendly and welcoming environment.

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 4 trustees
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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