    RNIB CHARITY

    Provision of services in the devolved countries (Cymru, Scotlland and Northern Ireland), management of RNIB Places (schools and care homes and two of RNIB's supporterd living communities) and RNIB Solutions division (which handles accesibility products and services such as braille transcription and operation of RNIB's on-line shop and services).
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
    • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
    • Income has been volatile recently
