Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • Fundraising costs are low relative to funds raised
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £22,299,241 available, equivalent to 180 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
