READING CULTURE CIO

As partner to the Bradford Literature Festival, Reading Culture looks at educational and school needs.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are only 4 trustees
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
