The advancement of the education of the public in the history of Coastal Forces by the restoration, preservation and permanent display, for public benefit, of Coastal Forces craft, together with relevant artefacts, records and memorabilia relating to such craft.In furtherance of these activities the Charity supports Coastal Forces veterans and historic craft.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is predominantly male
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
