AGATHA CHRISTIE FESTIVAL LIMITED

To deliver an internationally acclaimed festival which celebrates Agatha Christie's great legacy as a crime writer and cultural icon and promotes Torquay as her birthplace and inspiration.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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
The Board 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
