THE THEATRE IN PRISONS AND PROBATION CENTRE

WE AIM TO PROVIDE PEOPLE WITH A MEANS TO GAIN MORE CONTROL OVER THEIR LIVES AND TO IMPROVE ITS QUALITY. TO ENABLE THIS WE USE THEATRE TECHNIQUES AND OTHER ART FORMS. PARTICIPATION IS AT THE CORE OF OUR WORK - OUR WORK HAS THREE MAIN AREAS OF FOCUS - PRACTICE WORKING WITHIN PRISON AND YOUNG OFFENDER INSTITUTION INMATES, PROBATION CLIENTS, AND YOUNG PEOPLE AT RISK, TRAINING,CONSULTANCY & ADVOCACY.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
