FRIENDS OF OAKLANDS CARE HOME

Oaklands Care Home is a purpose built 55 bedded care home offering Residential and Respite care. The Friends aim to improve the quality of life of the residents of the care home by working with staff, residents and relatives.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from a grant maker
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and 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
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: 7 years
