Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Financial issues to consider:

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