Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
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
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 6 years
