FRIENDS OF ATTEND ABI (FAABI)

To promote health and relieve financial hardship by providing additional amenities and equipment to support the welfare of the charitable beneficiaries of Attend ABI (the acquired brain injury project run by the charity Attend); and such other charitable services as the charity trustees deem appropriate.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 11 years
