THE ALKAN SOCIETY 

PROMOTING AWARENESS OF THE LIFE AND WORK OF ALKAN (1813-1888) THROUGH CONCERTS, PUBLICATIONS AND RESEARCH.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
