THE FILM AND VIDEO WORKSHOP 

We provide training and facilities for filmmakers and animators. We work with adults, young people and children, here at our studio and in schools, colleges and art centres.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
