THE BLOOD PRESSURE ASSOCIATION 

(a) Education about and promotion of a greater understanding of the condition of high blood pressure, among sufferers, carers and medical, nursing and related professions;(b) Promotion of research into the condition of high blood pressure and the publication of the useful results of such research; and(c) Relief of people suffering from high blood pressure by providing information & support
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

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 has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
