    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • The charity has received Government grants

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • Over half the Board have joined recently

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Accounts have been filed late on 5 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
