ANTENATAL RESULTS & CHOICES (ARC) LIMITED

ARC provides non-directive support and information to parents throughout antenatal testing.We offer parents specialised support for as long as is needed when a fetal anomaly is diagnosed. Our aim is to enable parents to make decisions which are appropriate to their individual circumstances. We also work closely with health care professionals in the field to help them deliver high quality care.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from a grant maker
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is completely female

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
