Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly 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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
