Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • The latest accounts were qualified
  • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year but the charity has substantial reserves available
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
