YELENI THERAPY & SUPPORT LTD

We aim to provide a programme of free complementary therapies plus ongoing support via workshops, self help groups and exercise classes for anyone with cancer in Herefordshire and surrounding counties to help them cope with the rigours of conventional treatment and support them on their journey towards living well with, and beyond cancer. We also offer support to their carers.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

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