ANTHEM. MUSIC FUND WALES

We advance in life young people in Wales, aged from 3 to 25, by supporting them to reach their potential through musical opportunities and activities in all genres. We seek to identify and nurture musical talent and ability, and to support career pathways in music and the music industry.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending since inception
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are 14 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
