SHINE CANCER SUPPORT 

Our mission is to provide tailored information and peer support for anyone diagnosed with any cancer in their 20s, 30s or 40s through a range of activities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
  • There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of 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

Financial issues to consider:

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