FRIENDS OF NOTTINGHAM MUSEUMS 

To encourage the wider appreciation of the work of Nottingham Museums, and give financial help in purchasing artefacts.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker

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
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
