THE NATIONAL FEDERATION OF PROSTATE CANCER SUPPORT GROUPS

Run by patients for patients, we campaign for early detection of prostate cancer and better treatment options. We support those affected by prostate cancer by seeking to ensure that men always get the best treatment options whatever the stage of their disease, by striving to remove injustices in pathways offered to them and assisting and strengthening the activities of support groups.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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