THE HOPE FOUNDATION FOR CANCER RESEARCH

The charity raises funds for cancer research in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is completely male

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £1,419,050 available, equivalent to 25 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
