Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
Why are there only 4 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

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