  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £3,490,527 available, equivalent to 31 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
