ROYAL PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY

The RPS seeks to create a future for music through the encouragement of creativity, the recognition of excellence and the promotion of understanding. Artistic activities focus on composers and young musicians and through a series of awards and discussion it seeks to raise the public consciousness of the finest music making today and create a forum for debate about the direction of classical music.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has received considerable income from legacies in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

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 has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
