Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending since inception
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
