PORT TALBOT UNIT 537 OF THE SEA CADET CORPS

Our aim is to give young people the best possible start in life through nautical adventure & fun based on the traditions of the Royal Navy

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 and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
