THE CAEDMON COMPANY

We are a group of professional artists, well-being and education workers who provide opportunities for participation in the arts via high-quality arts-based learning programmes in aspirational settings designed to help socially disadvantaged children and young people learn new personal and interpersonal skills and broaden their horizons (appreciation of/access to the arts).
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why is the Board completely female?

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
