THE GAMBIA HORSE AND DONKEY TRUST

GHDT strives to reduce rural poverty by increasing the productivity of working horses and donkeys through welfare and management education. It also provides veterinary resources and education and explores ways of improving the nutrition and the design of carts and harness cost effectively.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
