Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • Why are there only 4 trustees?

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
