The support and promotion of the Judges’ Lodgings Museum in Lancaster for the benefit of the public
## **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document**
**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)**
The museum would normally have re-opened in March 2020 for the March-October season but this was prevented by the lockdown and other COVID measures. Nevertheless, the museum re-opened in September for two months, the only museum in Lancaster to re-open in 2020. This enabled it to acquire valuable experience operating under COVID safeguards, including the introduction of a one-way system, visits by appointment only, the screening of the ticket desk and facemask and sanitisation controls. The work on the installation of the internal glass porch was also completed early in the year and was a significant part of the overall adjustment required to the management of visitors.
Despite the lockdowns, the trustees continued to meet online with representatives of the County Council on the museum’s joint planning group. Much of these discussions centred on what would be required in order to re-open post-lockdown. Other discussions focused on matters concerning the collections including in particular the Gillow Gallery and matters of wider import such as the city’s response to the Black Lives Matter movement.

The Trust is the representative body for the Friends of Lancaster Judges’ Lodgings and it is largely through the Friends that volunteers work in the museum in a variety of capacities such as room stewards, gardeners, cleaners etc. But for these volunteers the museum would not have been able to manage the limited re-opening in September/October 2020.

- policy on grantmaking;
- policy programme related investment;
- contribution made by volunteers.
