ROYAL SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS NORTH SOMERSET BRANCH

We work for the benefit of all animals, by trying to prevent cruelty and by providing new homes for the many animals which come into our care. We help all animals-large or small.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has a robust balance sheet
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £2,686,349 available, equivalent to 47 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
