    LIVERPOOL SIX COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION 

    We run a community centre for local people, offering meeting facilities for local residents free of charge, adult learning and training classes/sessions, fitness classes, social club/bingo and in school holidays play schemes for children and young people. We have many contacts with local organisations and provide sign posting information on a wide variety of social issues from health to job ops
    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 and there are significant future grants due to be received

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
    • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
    Established: 19 years
