EAST MIDLANDS CROSSROADS-CARING FOR CARERS 

Carers Trust East Midlands provides short breaks for carers across England. Our charitable objective is to relieve the stresses experienced by carers and their beneficiaries. We achieve this by delivering the highest quality of care to people in their own homes, which allows the carer to take a short break from their caring responsibilities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
