THE BRIGHTSPACE FOUNDATION

To enable, promote and demonstrate sustainable development within the county of Herefordshire

Analysis by Giving is Great

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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
