THE NOTIVATE TRUST

Provision of hands-on creative music projects, individual music tuition, resources for use in educational and therapeutic activities, training courses for youth workers and teachers, access to musical instruments, sound recording, rehearsal facilities and associated technology.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
