THE VIRTUAL DOCTORS

The Virtual Doctors run by the charity aims to provide doctor-supported diagnostic assistance to remote communities in Africa, using telemedicine.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be 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
Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
