GARFORTH BRASS

Brass Band for people of all ages

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
