ST KENTIGERN HOSPICE

The provision of palliative and respite care to day and residential patients in a hospice environment for the people of North East Wales and providing support to our patients' families.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has a robust balance sheet
Income generation is well diversified
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Why are there 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appeared to be considerably in excess of CC guidelines at the latest year end especially considering the historic stability of income
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
