MID-HERTS RAYNET GROUP

The aim of the organisation is, by the provision of communication services, to relieve distress and suffering resulting from emergencies and disasters. Advance education by providing training exercises both for ourselves and The British Red Cross, The St John Ambulance, local authorities and any other user service requiring us to do so.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board completely male?

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
