Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there only 3 trustees?
Why is the Board composition very static?

Financial issues to consider:

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