Expenditure shown in Table 12 shows little significant change over the three year period.
Four regions show a small decline in expenditure in 06/07 compared to the previous year. In
London, Sadler’s Wells and Dance Umbrella’s turnover amounted to £45,516,734 against a
total for London of £63,521,873. Therefore, expenditure by the agencies, excluding these
organisations, amounted to £18,005,139 over three years.
In the South East the total expenditure was £6,208,529 over three years with Woking Dance
Festival and Wycombe Swan accounting for £4,304,302 with a significant increase for
Wycombe Swan in year three. Therefore expenditure by the agencies, excluding these
organisations, amounts to £1,904,227 over the three year period.
28 61% of this is from Wycombe Swan in 2006.07. There is a dramatic increase in income from £24,728 to £3,115,638
