    WELLINGTON CHORAL SOCIETY 

    Educating the public in the arts and sciences, in particular the art and science of music, by the presentation of concerts and other activities
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
    • The charity has received Government grants

    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 and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
    Established: 28 years
