BRISTOL PALESTINE FILM FESTIVAL 

Bristol Palestine Film Festival organises an annual festival of films from or about Palestine, or made by Palestinian film-makers. The festival is centred in Bristol and the South West of England and usually takes place in December, with extra events occasionally taking place at other times. The festival also includes other art forms such as music, dance, theatre, writing or visual arts.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received Government grants
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
