THE STOKE POGES SINGERS

Stoke Poges Singers is a small choir of around 40 - 50 members. We accept singers of all standards, from those who don't read music to those who enjoy taking on solo work. We perform around 6 concerts a year, everything from Mozart to G&S to Songs from the Shows, and all the proceeds from our concerts are donated to local charities chosen by members.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

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

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 was lower than spending in the latest year
