NATIONAL YOUTH STRING ORCHESTRA

Furthering the musical education of children and young people enabling them to perform in public. Its primary activity is the running of specialist string chamber orchestras providing quality training for talented young string players between the ages of 7 and 21 and giving them experience of the art of public performance.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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:

There are only 4 trustees
The Board is completely male
The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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