Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board completely male?
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static
    • and returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile recently and was substantially in excess of spending in the latest year
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
