Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
