Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
Established: 24 years
