THE NEWBRIDGE PROJECT

The NewBridge Project is established to foster and advance the appreciation and understanding of the arts for the benefit of the public. The NewBridge Project operates throughout England and Wales.

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 including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

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
