Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
