Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • There are 15 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • There is a pension deficit of £2,989,000
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
