Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • 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

Financial issues to consider:

  • Unrestricted reserves appear to be dangerously low at the latest year end
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Established: 27 years
