The objectives of the Charity are to relieve those in need and in particular the sick and those in poor health and to advance public education but not exclusively by:a)promoting the christian ministry of healing and other therapiesb)providing counselling,retreats and both educational and training coursesc)providing pastoral care for the benefit of the whole community
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • 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:

  • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
