ONE-DRUM FOUNDATION 

We run authentic interactive African drumming, singing and dancing workshops and performances for all ages and abilities. Our purpose is to educate the public on the history and legacy of ancient African drumming rhythms and African percussion instruments and the powerful impact African drumming rhythms, songs and dance has on popular music still influenced by the historical African heritage.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
