Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data

Established: 15 years
