CLYST CARING FRIENDS

We provide care and support to those who are unwell, elderly, or living with disability or loneliness in the local community. We offer day care and transport services and in doing so also provide essential respite for carers. We work with others, including our local medical practice, to enable people to remain as independent as possible in their own homes, and to uphold the dignity of our clients.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
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 and dynamic in terms of composition

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 was lower than spending in the latest year
