THE ROYAL LANCERS MUSEUM TRUST 

The Charities activities have yet to be confirmed by the Trusteed and implemented. The areas that these activities will operate in in not specific but will be primarily in the regiment's recruiting area. This does not exclude any other area of the UK.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • 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 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
