HOME4U CARDIFF

Home4U Cardiff appeals to property owners in the Cardiff area, asking if they can suitable properties, in good condition and with appropriate facilities, available for a specific period to asylum seekers and refugees who are currently homeless and destitute. The trustees make appropriate agreements with the property owners.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition
This charity is based in an area of extremely high deprivation

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
