NEWBORN, INFANT AND CHILD HEALTH EDUCATION INTERNATIONAL (ALSO KNOWN AS NICHE INTERNATIONAL)

We provide training in the care of newborn babies to healthcare staff in low-resource areas, in order to improve infant mortality rates and relieve sickness. We also provide training to candidate instructors, so that they can teach courses and make the process sustainable. We have taught in Cameroon, Liberia and Uganda, and plan to expand to other areas.

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, despite a decline more recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
