    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • The charity has received Government grants
    • This charity has a robust balance sheet
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

    Financial issues to consider:

    • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £9,258,458 available, equivalent to 36 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
    • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
    • Fundraising costs are high relative to funds raised
