EDEN VALLEY MUSEUM TRUST

The charity's activities are for the advancement of the education of the public in the history of Edenbridge, the Eden Valley and the surrounding areas in particular, but not exclusively, by the provision and maintenance of a museum.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Latest accounts are overdue for filing
On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending

Established: 26 years
