    AYRSHIRE DEAF CLUB 

    Mission:

    Our organisation exists for the purpose of providing support services to the Deaf community of Ayrshire and surrounding areas
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

    Financial issues to consider:

    • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
    Comment by the Charity:
      This is due to the fact that a significant grant was received in the previous financial year which was designed to support a 2 year project. As income is taken into account in the year it is received, but expenses are apportioned over both years, this leads to the appearance that income has dropped when in fact it is stable
