GRAYSHOTT CONCERTS 

As amateur classical music promoters, we stage 4-6 events each year at our local church. Events include symphony concerts, operas and oratorios. Performers are mostly professionals and include choirs, orchestras, soloists, conductors and composers.The charity aims to entertain mostly local audiences to achieve "world-class performances - on your doorstep" thereby avoiding unnecessary travel.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received Government grants
  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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