THE TORBAY HOSPITAL LEAGUE OF FRIENDS 

To raise money to provide amenities and services for patients and staff at Torbay Hospital
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has received more than half of its income from legacies in recent years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

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 recently and was substantially in excess of spending in the latest year
