HEBDEN BRIDGE ARTS FESTIVAL LTD

Hebden Bridge Arts aims to produce highly ambitious, artistically exciting, socially engaged work, and to support the development of community confidence and great art through mentoring and co-creation. Based in Hebden Bridge, we work across Calderdale with an emphasis on cross-borough organisational partnership and collaboration with extraordinary people.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
