Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • Income generation is well diversified
  • 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 age

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £11,263,028 available, equivalent to 28 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
Established: 42 years
