THE FAMILY MEDIATION TRUST

The Charity's activities are to alleviate hardship and distress caused by the break up of marriage and family and to preserve and protect the health both mental and physical of adults and children involved therein.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
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
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
