SUFFOLK MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS THERAPY CENTRE

To aid and improve the condition of those suffering from Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and those suffering other symptoms or conditions which may benefit from therapy.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and 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
