    AFRICAN CARIBBEAN MEDICAL MENTORS

    African Caribbean Medical Mentors work to overcome under-representation and disadvantage in Medicine, Dentistry and the healthcare field as a whole and reduce the socio-economic barriers that often affect those of African Caribbean Descent in entering these fields. We address this via mentoring, events, resource provision and grant-making to improve equality in Medicine and Dentistry.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

    Financial issues to consider:

    • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
