S&N THEATRE COMPANY 

S&N Theatre make inspiring and original work for children. We believe in capturing the imaginations of children and young people, taking a journey with them to produce theatre that responds to who they are. We do this by being child-centred in all of our work, involving children in our creation process to learn from them and by inspired by them.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 3 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
