BARCHESTER HEALTHCARE FOUNDATION

Barchester Healthcare Foundation helps older people as well as working age adults with a learning or physical disability or mental health issue across England, Scotland and Wales. We give grants to help reduce isolation and loneliness, promote group activities and generally improve people's mobility and quality of life. We help individuals, small community groups and small local charities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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