YOUTH WITH A MISSION LIMITED

Running Missionary training schoolsFundraising for Missionaries overseas and in the UK

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

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 £5,319,000 available, equivalent to 74 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending

Established: 52 years
