A. TO PROMOTE RACIAL AND RELIGIOUS HARMONY BY ADVANCING EDUCATION AND PROMOTING DIALOGUE AND UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN MUSLIMS AND JEWS IN BRITAIN, PALESTINE AND ISRAEL.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

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
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
