THE COUNTESS OF BRECKNOCK HOSPICE TRUST

The charity supports the work of the Hospice which provides respite and palliative care to patients suffering from all forms of cancer and other non-malignant serious illnesses, who reside in the area of benefit (Andover and its surrounding villages) or have a real and substantial connection with the area of benefit. Together with comfort and support for their families, friends and carers.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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 well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £1,706,759 available, equivalent to 25 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
