BAMPTON CLASSICAL OPERA

The charity advances education for the public benefit by performing opera and other music at a high standard, concentrating on rare 18th-century repertory sung in English. Supporting the early development of outstanding young professional performers, the charity aims at an accessible and relaxed ethos with affordable ticket prices. It works beyond its area of operation when appropriate.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received Government grants
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
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
One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

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