THE GENETICS SOCIETY

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £2,185,322 available, equivalent to 37 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Income was lower than spending in the latest year
