Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Fundraising costs are low relative to funds raised
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £145,692,000 available, equivalent to 27 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
  • There is a pension deficit of £7,145,000
