CENTRAL YOUTH THEATRE 

To advance education of young people under the age of 26, living within Wolverhampton and its surrounding area in all aspects of drama and theatre production and the development of public appreciation of such art
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
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Established: 15 years
(16 years as a company)
