RESEARCH AND TRAININGTRIPS AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE WHOLE FAMILYSTRATEGIC WORK. WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HEALTH, EDUCATION AND SOCIAL CARE.
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 material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 3 trustees
  • 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
