JUNIOR SAINT JAMES'S SINGERS 

JSJS is a non-auditioning choir in Warwickshire which provides a positive, exciting and inspiring experience of choral singing for young people, aged 11 and above. It offers them the opportunity to be immersed in great choral works which would usually be inaccessible to choirs of a similar age range, enriching the lives of young people by giving them the opportunity to excel in their music making.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 3 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
