THE BIRMINGHAM BACH CHOIR 

The Birmingham Bach Choir exists to give inspiring live performances to professional standards that engage our audiences with a distinctive mix of new and established repertoire. We aim to communicate our enthusiasm for great choral music to an increasing audience with concerts that, like our rehearsals, are both purposeful and enjoyable.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been 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

Financial issues to consider:

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