CoDa Dance Company is a contemporary dance and physical company delivering professional and community performances, workshops and education. The company focuses on work with marginalised people, with a particular focus on neurological conditions and those who would not otherwise access dance.
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
  • 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
Established: 10 years
