Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there 15 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?
  • and returns have been filed late on 5 occasions over the last 5 years

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
