THE ELLA DAWSON FOUNDATION

The Ella Dawson Foundation was initially registered with the Charities Commission in December 2021 as a Charitable Trust Deed (Charity No 1197112). The charity aims to help young adults aged 18-30 years old living in the UK and their families and carers to live well through and beyond a cancer diagnosis by providing tailored physical, psychological, nutritional and wellbeing support.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
