Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • Fundraising costs are low relative to funds raised
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £9,906,000 available, equivalent to 42 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
  • 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
