Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
Why are there only 4 trustees?
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
