THE NATURE TRUST (SANDY)

In promoting it's environmental objects the Charity makes grants to the RSPB, or any organisation such as landfill operators, environmental bodies or other organisations operating within the context of the Landfill Communities Fund.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
