FRAZZLED CAFE

The object of the CIO is the promotion and protection of good health by providing support to persons affected by anxiety, stress and mental health issues through providing a national network of private, safe and anonymous spaces for people to talk, connect and share experiences with others.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

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