PALLIATIVE CARE WORKS

We engage in training and mentoring of palliative care personnel (doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, etc) working in hospital and home-care based pc services in countries defined as 'resource-limited' - mainly in Africa and Asia. Our activities are normally funded by larger charitable organisations, such as Tearfund, Afrox, Rotary International.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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 and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
