TB ALERT 

TB Alert is the UK's National Tuberculosis Charity, fighting TB worldwide by urging greater spending for TB; raising awareness of TB to ensure cases are diagnosed as early as possible and prevent further spread of TB; providing support and information for TB patients, families and concerned members of the public; and supporting partners in high burden countries to increase access to treatment.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
