Income and expenditure

1 year · years end 31 DecemberiPlain-English summaries of the Charity Commission's own definitions for the annual return. Figures are as the charity filed them.

Only one financial year is on the register so far, so there is no chart yet. The figures are in the table.

Detailed income and expenditure are filed only by charities with income over £500,000. Sutton Theatre Company has not filed them in the years we hold, so only the totals and government income are shown.
