THE CARDIFF MUSEUM DEVELOPMENT TRUST 

The Cardiff Museum Development Trust fundraises to make sure the Cardiff Story Museum can deliver a range of activities for all ages and interests - be that our Dinky Dragons sessions for babies and toddlers, our schools programme, our work with diverse communities, our dementia friendly activities across the city or our interactive galleries that tell the story of Cardiff and its people.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

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 but has stabilised more recently
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
