BUNGAY ARTS AND THEATRE SOCIETY

The Charity provides and assist in the provision of facilities for the recreational, educational, cultural, artistic and other leisure occupations in the interests of the social welfare of the inhabitants of the town of Bungay and surrounding communities.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
The Board is predominantly male

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 but has stabilised more recently
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
