COMPANY OF OTHERS

Company of Others is a dance theatre company based in the North East of England, led by Artistic Director and Choreographer Nadia Iftkhar. We collaborate with people who have experience of being 'othered' by the society we live in, to co-create dance theatre experiences which highlight and share stories of the human experience through their lens. Our values are Artistry, Equity and Integrity

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received backing from multiple prominent grant makers recently
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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