THE HOUSEHOLD CAVALRY MUSEUM TRUST LIMITED 

To educate the public and members of the Household Cavalry in the Regiment's history, heritage, traditions and military accomplishments through the preservation, maintenance and management of the Regimental collection and the operation of 2 museums in Windsor and London.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • 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
