CARPET MUSEUM TRUST TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT AND Accou￿rS 202S 2. Achlevements and performance a. Key financial performance indicators The charity had income of £97.528 during the year. tsf which £10,605 wa5 for restricted purposes. b. Activitres Apart from admission5. which Temain static. we have continued to place the emphasi5 on lundraising 3ctivities with walks and talks, school visits and running courses on various craft activities in particular for children. Room hire continued to be one of our main means of producing a regular income and dem3nd remains strong. Our Retail sales of both item5 made bv volunteers and those brought in irnproved and exceeded the budget by 300% with particular emphasis on items for the various special events, Easter, etc. The decision to close in December resulted in a very large number of visitors and so income from admissions and shop sales exceeded the bud8et by £7.000. Our Archive is an irnportant part of our activities and we continued to receive donations. Ways that we can monetarise the archive arè still being explored. We continued to work with consultants, funded by Museum Development Midlands, to look at ways of increasing revenue that will lead to a more resilient future. This led to a review of our staffing and the appointment of a Museum Oevelopment Manager who started in January 2025 and left at the end of July 2025 having completed his task of making recommendations on a viable buslness model for the Trust. c. Financial Revièw. We had budgeted for a deficit of £21,(X)O and the outcome was a surplus of £8,826 befoTe depreciation. We had three grants tot311in8 £37.000 which were for one year only. The donations of £10,838, included £5.IQK) from the Friend5 of Museum. The unexpected surplus w35 due the reaction to our closing which also resulted in exceptional visitor numbers in December. The office suite that we let, which produced £12,000 a year became vacant at the end of March and by the end of Decerrber we had not found a new tenant and with the current availability of a surplus of office space in Kidderminster we were advised that we were unlikely to dts so. The 2 mernbers of staff that we funded untll May from the Arts Council did not have thelr contracts renewed. The member of staff responslble for sehool visits and other customer facing events left and wa5 not replaced. Our long term future relie5 on regular funding through our activities ar)d thi5 was not realistic. A Consultantlmanager was appointed to produce a report on our long term viability. Consequently, the decision was made to reduce staff costs to one member of staff plus cleaner and to close the Museum to the publlc from the end of December 2025. not to renew the Contract for the Manager or Cleaner and to run it. in the short term, with just trustees and volunteer5 whilst we discussed our future with the District, Town and County Councils. The decision was made to relaunch the Museum with a wider remit as a Town Museum talks are ongoing to achieve this. d. Going Concern. We consider that at present with our estimated income and expenditure in 2026 that we could not continue and the steps outlined in the financial review are being taken to remedy this. The trustees have 3sses5ed the charity'5 ability to continue as going concern and consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on this basis. However, rhere remains a materi31 uncertainty in relation to the Success of the proposed relaunch and the charity's ability to generate Sufficient income and public support in the future. e. Resejves policy. The Trustees have estsblished the Charity's Reserves Pollcy with reference to the Charity Commission guidance ICC 191 and accounting standards IFRS 1021.
