Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there 18 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

  • This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
