HUMBER RESCUE 

The objective of Humber Rescue since 1990 has been to provide a fast response rescue vessel on the upper reaches of The River Humber and its tributaries, and is governed by a Deed of Trust dated 14th November 1989
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board is completely male

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: 34 years
