GIST CANCER UK

We give support and (non-medical) advice to patients and their carers affected by gastro-intestinal stromal tumours. We do this by means of a website, and by providing telephone and email help. We also run patient support meetings, and represent patients' interests with health professionals, government agencies and pharmaceutical companies.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of 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
Income has been volatile recently
