AVON TENNIS

To promote, support and deliver tennis playing opportunities for all members of the public in our unitary authority areas of Bath & NE Somerset, Bristol City, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire, and to make it inclusive and appealing to all sections of the community. To do this we engage with Tennis Clubs, Education Establishments, other Venues, Qualified Coaches, and run Competitions.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received Government grants
There has been strong growth in spending since inception

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
