QUADRAM INSTITUTE BIOSCIENCE 

The world-wide advancement of education in food sciences and food related matters by undertaking research and disseminating for public benefit the useful results of such research
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appeared to be in excess of CC guidelines at the latest year end especially considering the historic stability of income
