THE PARAGON CONCERT SOCIETYOFFERS FINANCIAL SUPPORTTO PERFORMANCES BY ORCHESTRAS GROUPS AND CHOIRS PERFORMING CLASSICAL MUSIC IN BRISTOL BATH SOUTH GLOUS AND N SOMERSET.WE ALSO SUPPORT MUSIC EDUCATION PROJECTS AIMED AT YOUNG PEOPLE. THE SOCIETY DOES NOT GIVE GRANTS TO INDIVIDUALS

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
