CORNWALL PARTNERSHIP FOUNDATION TRUST CHARITABLE FUND

For any charitable purpose or purposes relating to the National Health Service wholly or mainly for the Cornwall Partnership NHS Trust
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • The latest accounts were qualified
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
