WADARS 

The care and protection of animals of all kinds in need of care and attention by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or similar causes.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • This charity has received more than half of its income from legacies in recent years
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly female
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

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 recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year but the charity has substantial reserves available
