PELVIC RADIATION DISEASE ASSOCIATION 

The term Pelvic Radiation Disease is a relatively new one, only now gaining general acceptance among health professionals as a valid and useful framework within which to describe brief or longlasting problems, mostly in the bowel, caused by pelvic radiotherapy. We aim to bring this disease to the attention of health professionals and patients to inform them about how to alleviate their symptoms.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

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