THE FRIENDS OF THE OLD GRANARY STUDIO CONCERTS TRUST 

The objects of the Trust shall be to expand the range of live classical music performances available to the general public through the programme of concerts at the Old Granary Studio and at such other places as the Trustees may from time to time approve (by contribuing to the artists' fees for those concerts and by such other means as the Trustees may decide) to broaden public awareness.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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:

  • 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 has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
