THAMES21 LIMITED

Thames21 positions itself as a leader and innovator in finding solutions to the environmental challenges faced by our waterways. It currently operates in the South East of England and is engaged in a number of environmental programmes on the River Thames and the rivers and canals which discharge into it

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine

Established: 20 years
