Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

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
