TURNING LIVES AROUND LTD

The provision of accommodation with support and outreach work for vulnerable homeless people.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity is not recognised by HMRC for Gift Aid according to its latest published return
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
