SPRINGHILL HOSPICE (ROCHDALE) 

Provision of palliative Care Services for people with life limiting illnesses.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Income generation is well diversified
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • 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:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appeared to be in excess of CC guidelines at the latest year end especially considering the historic stability of income
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
