SIR THOMAS BEECHAM TRUST LIMITED 

The charity was established to promote, maintain, improve and advance education, particularly musical education, and to encourage the arts including music and drama and to establish schemes therefor.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are only 2 trustees
  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

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
