Trustees Statement
Compared with many similar heritage sites who are experiencing decline. Redferns Museum and
Uttoxeter Heritage Trust continue to thrive. For our 5eclor merely balancing income and expenditure
s a major achievement. However, Just like other organlsatlons increased energy and facility costs have
affected our results.
None of our success would have occurred without the enormous efforts of volunteers and trustees.
We are very grateful to all of them.
Our business plan aims formed the basis for the successful operation and development of the
Uttoxeter Heritage Trust for the year 2023124. Namety that the Trust and Museum..
Be considered to be an invaluable asset to Utloxeter and region
Be an importanl and popular herita8e visitor attraction
Lead the display development and accessibility of local history resources for the region
Link in with local town events and developments
Become an even more popular café and events venue throughout the year
Become a popular heritage linked retail oullet
Communlcate effectivety and regularly to a wide range of audiences
Support for the museum its activities and expertise contlnue to demonstrate how important the
Museum and Trust Is for Uttoxeter and the region's herita8e. Museum membership continues to
expand and activities are often booked to such an •xtent that we have had to use other venues
outside the museum buildin8.
We have continued to attract visitors and 8roups from within the town and from the wider re8i0n.
Local history talks have also been given acr055 Staffordshire and Derbyshire. School visits have also
increased as the museums resources and expertise become more widely known.
Our volunteer archive team continue to improve the accessibility of our resources. A new book on the
history of the toyrfn wa5 writlen by ihe team and publlshed in December 2023. This will forrn the basis
of a new local hlstory pro8ramme of local history displays and talks in 2024125. These, we hope, will
be facilitated by a museum refresh and creation of a new temporary display space in the coming year.
Herita8e talks 8iven in a variety of town buildin85 have been extremely popular and will continue into
next year. A partnership with Uttoxeter Rotary to deliver activities to support those with dementia has
been very successful.
Our monthly"Memories' Sessions for the older members of our community have continued through
the year. Not only have these given the Museum invaluable recordings of the people of the town. but
also have become a popular social event.

urroxETER HERITAGE TRUST
Trustees Report (continued)
For the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Our café and attached bookshop have remained popular and provide the financial backbone to
everything we do. Their success is due entirely to the dedication of our volunteer catering team.
Shop sales make a useful contribution to our bud8et and we continue to expand our offer.
Our social media presence remains of vital importance, particularly in promoting our café, shop and
heritage events. Our website remains an important information polnt for many and keeping It UP lo
date will be important as we refresh our displays and develop new programmes. A challenge for the
future will be to satisfy the demand our ￿)cial media presence is startin8 to 8enerate.
