THE IMPERIAL WAR MUSEUM DEVELOPMENT TRUST

On March 7th 2012, the Trust became an independent body for the receipt and management of funds, including the transfer of unrestricted reserves from the Imperial War Museum in pursuit of its objectives.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

There are only 4 trustees

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Latest accounts are overdue for filing
Income has been volatile recently and was substantially in excess of spending in the latest year

Established: 12 years
