PHILHARMONIA TRUST LIMITED

The advancement of musical education and appreciation, principally through the Philharmonia Orchestra.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity only provides its support via other charities
There are only 2 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending

Established: 56 years
