LIFE EDUCATION EAST MIDLANDS LIMITED

The charity delivers Health Promotion & Drug Resistence Education programmes to young people in East Midlands as a supplement to the school curriculum. It also delivers parenting programmes, running courses on behalf of Nottingham City Council and Nottinghamshire County Council
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • 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 age and gender 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
