AKONOBEA FOUNDATION

The Charity provide support programmes for people with dementia and family members. It also provides employment and training for vulnerable adults and young people.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from a grant maker
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
