WHITE HORSE DAY CENTRE

we help the elderly of Westbury and surrounding villages, giving them somewhere to meet friends catch up on local gossip,they also have a cooked meal,play bingo, excercises and we are hoping next year to have guest speakers on varied subjects,usually three day trips are organised seaside or garden centre,it also helps if we feel someone not looking ok we talk to our co ordinator.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
