TELEPHONES FOR THE BLIND FUND 

The fund exists to help to provide communication devices and services for those who are registered blind or visually impaired and are on low income, enabling many blind and visually impaired people to live independently.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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 has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
