SHAWMIND 

Shawmind is a charity on a mission to improve mental health awareness and education in children and young people through Action and Impact. Our passion, purpose and focus is to also provide modest funding and grants to vital and critical mental health charities, projects, individuals suffering in silence and local families in desperate need across Sheffield, UK and the local community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
