Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently
  • This charity has an endowment fund which generates most of its income

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age
  • All of the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • There was a deficit on unrestricted reserves of £212,814 at the last year end after deducting the value of own use assets
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
