THE GENDER IDENTITY RESEARCH EDUCATION SOCIETY

GIRES provides information and education about trans and gender diverse issues to all those who can improve the circumstances in which trans and gender diverse people live, including politicians, policy makers, employers, organisations that deliver public and private services, family members and journalists.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
