THE CENTRE FOR CRIME AND JUSTICE STUDIES (ISTD)

The Centre for Crime and Justice Studies is an independent educational charity that advances public understanding of crime and criminal justice. Through partnership and coalition-building, advocacy and research, we work to inspire social justice solutions to the problems society faces, so that many responses that criminalise and punish are no longer required.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

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
Income has been volatile recently

Established: 57 years
(72 years as a company)
