THE BRITISH BALLOON MUSEUM AND LIBRARY LIMITED

Collection of information and artefacts concerning the history and development of hot air/ gas ballooning and airships in the UK, to provide displays and written material.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
The charity has received backing from a grant maker and there are significant future grants due to be received
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management 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
