Provision of short run food support through two food banks
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants

Financial issues to consider:

  • This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
  • 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
Established: 3 years
