## Annual report for: 

## Lyn & Exmoor Museum, charity no: 1186098 For the period 01/01/2021 to31/12/2021. 

## The governing document is that of the C I O. 

Charitable objects: The Charity’s objects are to advance the education of the public by the establishment and maintenance of a museum and educational facility for items of historical and archaeological interest, archives, photographs, flora and fauna and arts and crafts especially those relating to the villages of Lynton and Lynmouth and the surrounding area. 

The main activities are the provision and maintenance of the museum building, providing access to the general public to the collection of artefacts in the possession of the Trustees, and to aid interpretation and understanding of the exhibits. 

The trustees also have the responsibility of ensuring the financial soundness of the museum, which is mostly provided by collecting admission fees from the visiting public. 

The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. 

During the year in view, the museum was only open from July to October, due to the pandemic. However, during this period the Museum proved popular with the public, and we had a steady stream of visitors. 

The trustees have also been preparing plans for a “big project” to safeguard and improve the museum, and reorganise the displays to make them more interesting and accessible. Grant funding will be needed to take this forward. 

Membership of the trustees is not limited by proscription, and is usually by invitation following an expression of interest by the applicant. Such membership is granted by the approval of the existing trustees, and is not wilfully withheld.
