THE ALSTON CHARITY

The Alston Charity was founded a little over a year ago, and is currently accumulating funds. It intends to give a variety of small donations to local and national charities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity only provides its support via other charities
  • 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 recently and was substantially in excess of spending in the latest year
