Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 21 years
