IFORD ARTS LIMITED

Presentation of site-specific operas and musical activities at various locations in Wiltshire and surrounding, and in the community, involving young professional musicians

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
