MOVING MEMORY DANCE THEATRE COMPANY LTD

Moving Memory works to improve the health and wellbeing of older people through a distinctive, peer-led, creative practice which uses movement, music, spoken word and digital projection as ways of revealing and presenting peoples stories and enabling them to express their individual identity. We make performances, workshops and training.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
There has been strong growth in spending since inception
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
