THE CROSBY ORCHESTRAL SOCIETY

The Crosby Orchestral Society performs as the Crosby Symphony Orchestra in the Sefton, Liverpool and neighbouring areas. The Society aims to foster the general public's appreciation of orchestral and chamber music by presenting a varied repertoire in public concerts each year.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
There are 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
