Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has received more than half of its income from legacies in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There have been multiple defaults for filing returns
There are only 3 trustees
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
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
This charity appears to be dormant
