Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there 21 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
