    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Accounts have been filed late on 5 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
    • This charity appears to be dormant
