    PROMOTING SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL WELL BEING IN THE COMMUNITY
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
    • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
