PETRUS COMMUNITY

PROVISION OF HOUSING AND SUPPORT FOR SINGLE HOMELESS CLIENTS, AND A RANGE OF DAY SERVICES.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
