THE DONCASTER CANCER DETECTION TRUST 

Promoting the detection, prevention and treatment of cancer and aligned diseases, which may be suffered by people in the Doncaster area, and to support the medical and charitable work carried out by the NHS, St John's Hospice and other organisations in the Doncaster area
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

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
Established: 49 years
