FOUNDATION FOR DEMOCRACY AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

The objects of the Charity are the promotion of sustainable development for the benefit of the public.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

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 and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
