NEW BREWERY ARTS LIMITED 

New Brewery Arts connects people with the hand-made, promotes the joy and fulfilment of making and celebrates the role of craft and creativity in all our lives. We do this through free exhibitions, studios and public participation activities. Last year over 150,000 visited, we delivered 18,750 hours of participation (courses and classes) and provided opportunities to over 500 craftspeople.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • More than half of total income was derived from trading and fees in the latest year
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • Fundraising costs are extremely high relative to funds raised
Established: 35 years
