THE OXFORD CONCERT PARTY LIMITED 

Through community concerts and workshops the Oxford Concert Party, with an original and kaleidoscopic repertoire, makes music accessible to all. With passion and energy, humour and sensitivity, skill and experience, they take their listeners on a journey which transforms, heals and humanises, especially those imprisoned by isolation, disability, illness or walls.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • 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
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
Established: 29 years
