PATH (YORKSHIRE) LTD

PATH provides Positive Action Training to Black and Minority Ethnic people.
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 well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
