THE ABBOTTSWOOD FUND

The charity supports the promotion of healthcare to the people of Pershore
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

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
  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board composition appears to be very static

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
