THE STAFFORDSHIRE REGIMENT MUSEUM TRUST 

The Trust through a Museum and associated activities connects the public with its Army by telling the story of The Staffordshire Regiment, its forebears and successors, and their impact on world history and modern society.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly male

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
