THE ELGAR SOCIETY

THE PROVISION OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMES AND ACTIVITIES TO WIDEN KNOWLEDGE OF ELGAR'S MUSIC FOR ALL, SUPPORT FOR THE ELGAR BIRTHPLACE MUSEUMS AND EDUCATIONAL ESTABLISHMENTS, THE FUNDING AND ENCOURAGEMENT OF PERFORMANCES AND RECORDINGS OF HIS WORKS, THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF RESEARCH INTO ELGAR'S MUSIC, AND THE PUBLICATION OF A SCHOLARLY JOURNAL CONTAINING THE RESULTS OF SUCH RESEARCH.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

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