Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there 16 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

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