THE HEATHER VAN DER LELY FOUNDATION TRUST

The Heather van der Lely Foundation trust is a small charity that aims to make grants for professional and academic research in the area of developmental language disorders (DLD). It is the legacy of the late Heather van der Lely, a professor of Developmental Language Disorders and Cognitive Neuroscience.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly female
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
