Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
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
Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

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