CENTRE FOR PUBLIC IMPACT EUROPE

CPI UK believes in the potential of government to achieve better outcomes for everyone. We are helping government and public sector organisations to tackle the complex challenges they face, equipping changemakers with the confidence, tools and mindsets to listen, learn and adapt in these fast-changing and unpredictable times.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
  • Why are there only 4 trustees?

Financial issues to consider:

  • Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
