PLS FOOD FOUNDATION

The principal activity of the charity is the provision of food for homeless individuals.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

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 has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
