THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF PATHOLOGISTS

The College's mission is to promote excellence in the practice of pathology, and its primary concern is to patients and the public. As indicated in the Royal Charter the aims are to (1) advance the science and practice of pathology (2) further public education in the field of pathology and (3) promote research in pathology and disseminate the results.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £36,226,286 available, equivalent to 46 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Fundraising costs are high relative to funds raised
