THE BROOKE HOSPITAL FOR ANIMALS

Since it was founded in 1934, the Brooke has helped to relieve the suffering of millions of working horses, donkeys and mules and improved the livelihoods of the countless people who depend upon them. The Brooke provides veterinary services in some of the world's poorest communities, treating animals and training animal-owners in countries including Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Kenya and Pakistan.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Reserves management has been consistently within official guidelines
This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised

Established: 23 years
