TEAM RISE

Helping adults with learning difficulties

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending since inception

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there only 4 trustees?
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
