    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    Financial issues to consider:

    • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
    • Income has been volatile recently
