Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • There are 15 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £2,253,663 available, equivalent to 26 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
