THE ABBOTSKERSWELL BEER AND FOOD FESTIVAL 

The promotion and execution of the annual (September) Abbotskerswell Beer, Food and Music Festival
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

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
