Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Latest accounts are overdue for filing
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
