THE CRACKED SLIPPER COMPANY

We will be providing free workshops providing drama, dance and various other performance related skills to ensure that people across the whole of Hereford have the opportunity to be able to take part and have the chance to learn new skills/experiences and to make new friends. We also put on a Pantomime each year which all the people that participate in the workshops can take part in.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender 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
