ROTHER RESPONDERS 

Rother Responders are a team of volunteer Community First Responders based in the Rother area of East Sussex, trained to respond to emergency calls through the 999 system in conjunction with South East Coast Ambulance Service (SECAmb).By being based in the community, we can be on scene very quickly and in the vast majority of cases arrive before the ambulance.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

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
