THE ROSEMARY FOUNDATION LIMITED 

The Rosemary Foundation Hospice at Home provides a full supportive hands-on nursing service for patients suffering from cancer, or other life-threatening conditions, in their own homes. We serve the community within an approximate 15 mile radius of Petersfield and provide cover seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day, without charge
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
  • This charity has a robust balance sheet
  • This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £1,799,870 available, equivalent to 30 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
