Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £3,832,581 available, equivalent to 66 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
Established: 20 years
