Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 3 trustees
The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

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
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
