    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

    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
    Established: 10 years
