THE SIDEWALK YOUTH ORGANISATION

The Sidewalk Youth Organisation has been working in Scarborough for over 30 years, and was founded by Churches Together in 1989. Sidewalk's emphasis is on meeting the needs of young people where they are. We aim to provide ongoing support and informal education for young people, with a view to building better communities. Our focus is Detached Youth Work, Mentoring and Creative Group Work.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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 gender

Financial issues to consider:

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