Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Financial issues to consider:

This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
