BASINGSTOKE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

The orchestra comprises mainly amateur players who play to a very high standard. It currently performs three concerts a year in the Anvil Concert Hall, Basingstoke. The concert programmes include mostly popular classical music.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received Government grants
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
