Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
