    THE MEDIAWISE TRUST 

    MediaWise provides information, research, advice and training on all aspects of the media and ethics issues, particularly on coverage of refugees and asylum seekers, children, health and suicide, and of minority groups.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Latest accounts are overdue for filing and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years
    • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
