EXERCISE REHABILITATION ASSOCIATION LIMITED

The rehabilitation of people diagnosed with cardiac disease and associated conditions. The promotion of the prevention of heart disease, in particular by exercise.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 4 trustees

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 and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
