Treatment of injury or sickness by the provision of immediate medical care to any persons involved in accidents or medical emergencies.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

More than half of total income was derived from trading and fees in the latest year
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but unrestricted reserves are available
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
