PHILOMUSICA OF GLOUCESTERSHIRE AND WORCESTERSHIRE

Philomusica is a mixed-voice choral society giving concerts in both rural and urban churches throughout Gloucestershire and Worcestershire, as well as performances in Pershore and Tewkesbury Abbeys.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
