B@TITUDE LIMITED

The prevention or relief of poverty by providing grants, items, service and opportunities to persons in need and or Charities or other organisations working to prevent or relief poverty. To develop the capacity and skills of the members of socially and economically disadvantaged communities in such ways that they are better able to identify and meet their need and participate more fully in society

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
Why are there only 3 trustees?
The Board has little diversity in terms of age
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
