CONNECTED LIVES

Connected Lives is a charity working to support healthy, life-changing connections between parents and children, and within couple relationships. We run groups for parents and partners to give them a new way of understanding their key relationships, space to reflect on what is working and where they are struggling and support in making changes to help their relationships thrive.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly female
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
