SOUTH ISLINGTON STROKE CLUB

To relieve the needs of persons who have suffered a stroke, in particular by the provision of support, advice, recreation and other leisure time occupation to such persons, their carers and families in the interests of social welfare so their conditions of life may be improved.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
