Positives:

Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive benefits from the charity
There are only 4 trustees
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but unrestricted reserves are available
Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending

Established: 27 years
