Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are 16 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
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
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
