Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and 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
Accounts have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
