THE FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE AID IN SICKNESS TRUST

The charity provides life-enhancing grants where funding is not readily available from other sources towards medical items and services. We support adults and children whose liives are impaired by severe health problems and are resident in the UK.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
