HULL AND EAST RIDING BREAST FRIENDS 

We are local pro-active charity serving those affected by Breast Cancer in Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire and North East Lincolnshire.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • 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
