THE DANNY GREEN FUND CHARITY

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be very static

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 is declining
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 11 years
