THE DAISY GARLAND

The Daisy Garland exists to support children and young adults with drug-resistant epilepsy and their families. The work of the charity is life-changing and life-saving.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

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