KATIE PIPER FOUNDATION

The Katie Piper Foundation is the only charity in the UK dedicated to burns rehabilitation and restoration services. Supporting adult survivors of burns and those living with severe trauma scarring with both their physical and mental health. The vision is a brighter future for all survivors of burns and scars.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
