LONGPLAYER TRUST 

To promote, improve, develop and maintain the education and appreciation of the art and science of the music of LONGPLAYER and the science of sustaining LONGPLAYER
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • 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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
