    AYLESBURY HOMELESS ACTION GROUP 

    The objectives of AHAG are to relieve hardship, need and distress amongst those who are homeless and educate the public concerning the homeless and inadequately housed
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    Established: 32 years
