CYMORTH (CYMRU) 

Promote the relief of persons who are in poverty, sickness and distress by the provision of advice and support to voluntary and other agencies on the finance, development and management of housing and related schemes and services intended to support such individuals.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities

Financial issues to consider:

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