CALDERDALE CARERS PROJECT 

Provision of welfare services including activities and events, information, advice and support to carers and former carers and the cared for within the Metropolitan Borough of Calderdale.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 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
  • 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
