Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
Established: 6 years
