Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Reserves management has been consistently within official guidelines
Fundraising costs are unusually 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 gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but unrestricted reserves are available
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
