THE VOLUNTARY HOSPITAL OF ST BARTHOLOMEW

Supports Barts patients/relatives with grants when at material disadvantage as result of illness and/or treatment eg. travel, wigs, clothing. Act as 'patron' of Barts the less - hospitals church.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
