BRIGHTON NATURAL HEALTH FOUNDATION LIMITED

The promotion and advance of education of the public in the field of health care, nutrition and related subjects.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile recently
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
