ASSOCIATION FOR VIDEO INTERACTION GUIDANCE UK

The charity acts to advance the education and skills of the public using the method of 'Video Interaction Guidance'. It does this by ensuring that helping professionals who practice VIG are themselves competent.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending since inception
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly female
  • 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
