THE MILLENNIUM EMBROIDERY GROUP SUNBURY-ON-THAMES
The charity is responsible for the care and the permanent public display of the Sunbury Millennium Embroidery and for the maintenance and administration of the gallery that houses the work. Entry to the view the work is free and talks are regularly given to visiting groups including local schools. The gallery hosts accompanying exhibitions and engages in a number of community projects.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity faced financial challenges due to increased operating costs, including a 9.8% rise in the national minimum wage and higher energy and ingredient costs. Despite these pressures, the charity reported a net profit of £8,970.85 for the year. The trustees noted that the charity remains self-sustaining through café revenues and community fundraising, although it is dependent on securing future funding for its capital redevelopment project.
