THE MARTIN GALLIER PROJECT 

The Martin Gallier Project is fiercely dedicated to preventing suicides, breaking down stigma and supporting families, including those bereaved by suicide, in the North West.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees
  • The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
