APPLECARTLIVE LTD 

(A) To advance the education, public understanding and appreciation of the dramatic arts by providing and presenting for the public benefit high quality performances of storytelling, theatre, film, music, poetry and other performances which are of educational, cultural and spiritual value to the community.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been reasonable growth in spending over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • 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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Established: 12 years
