YMCA CENTRES (SOUTH MOLTON)

YMCA Centres (South Molton) operates a community centre providing youth services and a wide range support to the local community. Prior to opening our Community Centre in 2015, we were formally South Molton and District YMCA (Registered charity 300097).

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 8 years
