SARAH AGNES FOUNDATION

SAF is a national charity which seeks to strengthen relationships in family and community life from conception to elder. We are committed to improving healthy relationship outcomes across the generations. We believe in transforming lives of children, young people and their families across the generations by creating therapeutic programmes for them to learn, grow and develop.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
