DONCASTER PARTNERSHIP FOR CARERS LTD

We provide advocacy, advice, information, emotional/practical support,social activities and training to all unpaid carers and their families in Doncaster and volunteering opportunities.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
There are only 3 trustees
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
