THRESHOLD HOUSING LINK

Threshold Housing Link is a resettlement and supported accommodation charity providing emergency and long term supported accommodation and auxiliary services for single homeless people

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £1,253,043 available, equivalent to 24 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
