The School of Philosophy & Economic Science offers courses in Philosophy, Economics and other subjects founded on spiritual principles expressing the natural laws applicable to humanity as discerned from the world's major spiritual and philosophical teachings. It also promotes arts & sciences through lectures, seminars and concerts, and supports other charities with similar activities and objects.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • More than half of total income was derived from trading and fees in the latest year
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £26,897,000 available, equivalent to 76 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
