DUNSTABLE MUSICAL THEATRE COMPANY ("DMTC") 

We present musical theatre to audiences in south Bedfordshire. We are open to anyone over the age of 18 with an interest in musical theatre. We hold various activities throughout the year to enable us to perform at the professional theatre in Dunstable. We use these activities to subsidise that performance so that cost should not be a barrier to anyone wishing to join in our activities.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • 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
  • Latest accounts are overdue for filing
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Income has been volatile recently
