CROYDON YOUTH THEATRE ORGANISATION

Working locally with young people to develop physical and social skills primarily through the arts and in particular those involved in theatre. This is done through workshop sessions and productions on the charity's premises and through similar activities in other centres for young people i.e. schools, colleges and youth centres.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
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 dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is predominantly female
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
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
