Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the Museum reported a net deficit of income over expenditure of £134,799 for the year ended 31 December 2025, primarily due to the absence of a one-off donation received in the prior year. Despite this operating deficit, total unrestricted reserves increased to £1,912,530, significantly exceeding the trustees' policy target of six months' expenditure (£208,186). The trustees confirm that the Museum has adequate resources to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.
