To advance education in the arts, in particular the art of photography, by the establishment and maintenance of a gallery and library of documentary photography books and photographs, in particular but not by way of limitation, of the work of Martin Parr

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has a robust balance sheet
Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period, despite a decline more recently
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

This charity has substantial assets and unrestricted reserves of £2,695,024 available, equivalent to 112 months of spending and so may not be able to utilise additional funding
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
Income has been volatile recently and was substantially in excess of spending in the latest year
