AYLESBURY HOMELESS ACTION GROUP

The objectives of AHAG are to relieve hardship, need and distress amongst those who are homeless and educate the public concerning the homeless and inadequately housed

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
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

Financial issues to consider:

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