KUUMBA IMANI MILLENNIUM CENTRE LIMITED

The principle activity of the charity is to support racial minorities as priorities within a multi-racial approach, and to help them to reach their full potential through the provision of appropriate services.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 4 trustees?
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but very substantial unrestricted reserves are available
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
