    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
    • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
    • This charity uses a corporate trustee

    Financial issues to consider:

    • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £114,033,000 available, equivalent to 30 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
