PETERSFIELD MUSEUM AND ART GALLERY LIMITED 

The charity seeks to educate the public by the establishment and maintenance of a museum for items of historical and archaeological interest, archives, photographs, flora and fauna and arts and crafts especially those relating to the town of Petersfield and the surrounding area.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
