    ABINGDON MUSIC FESTIVAL ASSOCIATION 

    The Abingdon Music Festival Association provides opportunities for young musicians (and non-professional adult musicians) to give performances as conductors, singers or instrumentalists in front of an audience, and to be assessed by experienced adjudicators.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
    • 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
