THE BIRMINGHAM AND MIDLAND OPERATIC SOCIETY

The charity aim's to promote, organise and produce musical dramatic and associated works for the purpose of fostering and developing physical and mental recreation in the world of Theatre and the arts, and the raising of funds for the company's and charitable purposes.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
There are only 3 trustees
The Board composition appears to be rather 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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
