MUSIC IN COUNTRY CHURCHES 

The charity educates the public in music, predominately by holding concerts in country churches. By raising monies from such concerts and through the support of many individuals and trusts, the charity is able to make donations to all the churches in which concerts are held.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

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