THE BALA FOUNDATION

General Charitable Purposes

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Spending is declining
Income has been volatile recently
