VOICE OF HOPE RADIO

Broadcasting the good news of the Gospel and providing Social Gain to the communities of Bournemouth, Poole & Christchurch.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

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