EMIH LIMITED

The objectives of the charity are: 1) to advance the educational and cultural welfare of the inhabitants of Kingston upon Hull and the community at large; and 2) to promote the conservation of marine organisms by establishing The Deep aquarium in Kingston upon Hull, incorporating an international centre of excellence for education, learning and research of the marine environment.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
This charity has a robust balance sheet
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £26,966,371 available, equivalent to 30 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
