Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age

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
