CUPPA SQUAD

Cuppa Squad was set up to support you and your health. We provide free practical advice and information to help you understand your long-term condition and what your body needs to improve and maintain health. We are based in the community and understand the importance of mutual support, of meeting and working with people who have the same or similar conditions.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
