    THE PHOENIX PROJECT IPSWICH 

    Supports mental wellbeing for adults in the Ipswich area by providing therapeutic and educational activities that promote the maintenance and recovery of mental wellbeing.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    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
    • Spending is declining
    • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
    miles
