MOBO TRUST

For the public benefit, to advance education in the performing arts, particularly but not exclusively amongst children and young people from diverse backgrounds.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
