STIWT ARTS TRUST LIMITED 

PROMOTE AND ADVANCE EDUCATION BY ENCOURAGING PARTICIPATION IN ALL FORMS OF THE ARTS AND PROVIDING CULTURAL ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE LOCAL AND WIDER COMMUNITY
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
