ABSOLUTE THEATRE COMPANY

Theatre productions, workshops and special events with young people and other community groups
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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