Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is completely male

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 significantly lower than spending in the latest year
