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
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 3 trustees
The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
