THE HALL FOR CORNWALL TRUST

The principal activity of the Charity during the year was the operation of the Hall For Cornwall for the presentation of a wide variety of arts, entertainment, educational and community events. The programme is designed to provide a powerful stimulus to help people of all ages and means to enjoy the arts and further their own creativity.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

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

Financial issues to consider:

Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained

Established: 28 years
