VOX MOTUS

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 16 years
(20 years as a company)
