SUPPORTING NEONATAL USERS & GRADUATES (SNUG) LIMITED

We provide trained parent volunteers to Devon neonatal units so that new parents can to talk to someone who has been there before, without having to leave their new baby's side. This can be a one-off information and advice session or become regular mentoring and befriending. SNUG also operate an online forum and run monthly post-neonatal groups, all across Devon.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board has little diversity in terms of age

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

Established: 7 years
(10 years as a company)
