BAKEWELL AGRICULTURAL AND HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY

The staging of agricultural & horticultural events to help bring town and country together and to promote understanding of the rural way of life.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and 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
  • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
