THE AMECA TRUST

The charity establishes medical and educational training facilities in African countries; it establishes bursary awards and medical placements for UK medical students in African medical communities; it provides travel bursaries for UK school leavers to participate in recognised voluntary projects in African countries and it supports medical training in African Countries.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

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
