Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • 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:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 4 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
