THE AISLING PROJECT

Aisling gives advice and assistance to long-term Irish emigrants living in London who wish to resettle in Ireland.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 3 trustees
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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