Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 4 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
