Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • Reserves management has been consistently within official guidelines
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
