DEMENTIA SUPPORT SOUTH LINCS

One-to-one support through professional memory health care workers and peer support at monthly coffee mornings for those living with dementia and their carers. Other activities include weekly tai chi sessions, art classes, singing together, and one off events or outings. Additionally monthly pub lunches and a fortnightly day club take place for those with early on-set or early stage dementia.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly 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 recently but spending has been maintained
