IMIX 

IMIX challenges media narratives to enable the public to better understand migration and its impact in the UK. We directly support organsations which work with migrants through training, advice and mentoring to help them tell their stories through the media, in the digital space and to the public. We work in collaboration with over 120 partners in the UK.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

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 was lower than spending in the latest year
Established: 5 years
