ASTRIID

A charity connecting businesses with professionals who have long term health problems but who still have many skills to offer employers

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending since inception

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
