    BRIDGE INDIA 

    The aims of the charity are to promote appreciation and understanding of India, to foster communication between the peoples of India and the UK, to educate Indian diaspora in the UK and other India-watchers of the nuances, shared history and composite culture of India, which is often presented in a narrow lens, be it focusing on business, society or the policy landscape.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
    • Income has been volatile recently
