Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • This charity has a robust balance sheet

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £12,816,000 available, equivalent to 73 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
  • Fundraising costs are high relative to funds raised
