PANCREATIC CANCER RESEARCH FUND

The charity offers project grants for pancreatic cancer research to researchers in the UK and Ireland.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 4 trustees
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £3,721,137 available, equivalent to 29 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 10 years
