ROYAL FREE MUSIC SOCIETY CHOIR

The Royal Free Music Society choir meets weekly to rehearse and perform choral works. The choir is based in the Royal Free Hospital but is open to all members of the local community.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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
Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 11 years
