PASIC 

PASIC provide practical, financial and social support to the families of children and young people living with cancer. Our family support workers help families build support networks to reduce isolation. We also offer financial assistance and organise activities such as parties, trips and other events so that families can spend quality time together away from the stresses of the hospital.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
