PUSHKIN HOUSE TRUST

The Pushkin House Trust promotes Russian culture via an extensive programme of lectures, readings, concerts, exhibitions, film and language training. Pushkin House is open Monday to Friday 9.30-18.00 and for evening events. The House offers a range of facilities including a lecture theatre, teaching rooms and a library.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
