PANTSCANCERS

We raise awareness of all the pants area cancers and support people with these cancers. Based in Cornwall most of our work takes place here, but our website is internationally accessed
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there only 2 trustees?
  • Why is the Board completely female?

Financial issues to consider:

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