CLASSICAL ROAD SHOW 

The Company's charitable objective is children's musical education through participation in musical productions and workshops. We promoted 2 performances of The Battle of Britain with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra(RPO) and the London Mozart Players(LMP), 1 performance of Fire! with the LMP. The Company continued to offer free Song & Rhythm Workshops in schools in London and the South East.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
Established: 31 years
