Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender
This charity is based in an area of high deprivation

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently
