    NEW HORIZONS MENTAL HEALTH 

    To promote mental health and assist people with mental health problems by providing support and information. The charity operates within the area of Cwm Taf Local Health Board, or elsewhere for the benefit of persons who are ordinarily resident in this area.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • There has been reasonable growth in spending 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

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
    Established: 11 years
