Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

More than half of total income was derived from trading and fees in the latest year
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 and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appeared to be in excess of CC guidelines at the latest year end but spending has been increasing rapidly
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
