    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • This charity uses a corporate trustee

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
    • Income has been volatile recently
