THE MENOPAUSE CHARITY

The charity will transform the experience of the perimenopause and the menopause by providing women with access to support, evidence-based information and resources to enable them to make informed choices about their health. In addition we will raise awareness about the menopause in general, its symptoms and the treatment options available and help educate doctors and healthcare professionals.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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