Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There have been multiple defaults for filing returns
  • There is only 1 trustee
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
  • This charity appears to be dormant
