NBFA ASSISTING THE ELDERLY 

Following the decision to seek a merger with a larger charity operating in the same sector, Contact the Elderly was identified as a charity which shares very similar charity objectives to our own. During the year ended 31 March 2018 the whole of the charity's net assets were donated to Contact the Elderly. We anticipate that a similar transfer will take place each year.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years, despite a decline more recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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
Established: 12 years
