WESTCOUNTRY HEALTH EDUCATION & RESEARCH ENTERPRISE 

Provides services to members of the community with wide range of individual needs..mental/physical disability, long term chronic health condition or those who have become isolated or marginalised by condition or age.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and a Community Foundation

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 20 years
