Historic documents, cartoons and artefacts The Foundation has been enlrusted with the care of political papers of enormous historical importance. Lord Beaverbrook's role at the heart of 20th Century politics means his own personal papers have great significants.

Search room openings We￿ affected by limited staff resource and the need to support the Archives Relation Programme. The Beaverbrook Collection is being moved from the Padiamentary building to The National Archives based in Kew. London. During the move the collection is not available to the public but it is expected Services will resume in Autumn 2025. The Truslees do not consider it possible to pla￿ a value on these papers and therefore no amount is induded in heritage assets on the balance sheet in this regard. The Foundation owns a collection of over 8.000 historic cartoons by Low. Cummings. Vicky and Sttube. This collection is widely regarded as one of the most important collecfions of 20th Century British political cartoons. The Trustees have placed the collection on loan al the Templeton Library at the University of Kent at Canterbury. They have almost completed the digitisation of the whole collection. thus widening the availability of the cartoons to researchers and the general public. The Trustees have also set up a Beaverbrook Cartoon Scholarship to undertake work on the collection. The new owners of Cherkley Court. now known as Beaverbrook, have number of works of art belonging to the Foundation on loan, ensuring that they are on public display. Other items are on loan at the RAF Museum in Hendon and the RAF Club, London for public display. Page 2
