The Other Room

The Other Room is a small space for big ideas. Presenting up-close work with a global perspective, it is a place where new Welsh plays go toe-to-toe with the classics of modern drama that celebrates Wales as a bi-lingual nation and where young artists have the freedom to take big risks. From our home in the heart of Cardiff we make ambitious world-class theatre with international reach.

The places the charity told the Commission it works in.

The register has no income or spending figures for this charity.

Separate measures from the charity's own returns and accounts, each with its year. Read them together: no single measure says how well a charity is run.

From the annual returns the charity filed with the Charity Commission. The largest funder comes from its accounts, read by AI.

Government grants in the year ending 31 December 2024: Not reported. Government contracts: Not reported.

From the charity's annual return to the Charity Commission, which asks every charity with income over £10,000 how much came from government grants and contracts. It does not say which part of government. These totals are separate from the named funders read from its accounts and the grants published on 360Giving, and are not added to them.

Funders that publish to 360Giving list 8 grants to this charity since 2015, worth at least £238,500.

Only funders that publish their grants to 360Giving are included, and many do not. These are amounts funders awarded, which can differ from what the charity received in a given year, so they are shown apart from the accounts figures above.

7 trustees run the charity.
