EAST SUFFOLK DECORATIVE AND FINE ARTS SOCIETY

Promotion of the Arts through lectures and visits; volunteering activities related to the heritage of the area, including church recording; funding the development of young artists

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 43 years
