Achievements and performance
Organisational Health
-
a. Appropriate governance and management . There have been no significant changes in the composition of the Board and the key officers of the Board in 2023. Throughout 2023 the Board has been proactive in improving governance and management. The frequency of Board Meetings during the year has increased from two to four. Two Trustee Workshops are now held annually to discuss and agree solutions to key issues. The Museum Management Committee (MMC) now meets once a month. A Risk Register has been instituted and the Trust has agreed an update of the governing document which is currently some 50 years old utilising the current Charity Commission Model Trust Deed. Once the Trust Deed has been approved by the Charity Commission new Trustees will be invited to join the Board. In addition, maximum effort is made to include those Trustees not able to physically attend meetings to utilise Zoom.
-
b. Planning and having the resources to deliver the plan . The Board’s main effort is now focussed on finding new partners, funding and location for the Collection following the loss of MoD funding in 2030 . In 2022 the Trust identified a need to balance the annual museum budget and to that effect, the Assistant Curator post was disestablished in 2023. The Assistant Curators tasks and responsibilities have been shared out between the Curator and volunteers with little negative impact. The Regiment continues to provide an annual grant which is much appreciated, and negotiations have taken place to extend this to 2030. With the 2030 deadline in mind a five-year budget has been agreed by the Trust recognising the positive contribution that income from visitors, group visits and research has made. The Board has agreed that the Reserve is available to cover any shortfalls but remains available as match funding for grants in support of anticipated moves.
-
c. Assessing and managing risk. A Risk Register has now been approved by the Board and is reviewed at Board meetings.
Managing the LIM Collection
-
a. Holding and developing the LIM Collection. An audit of the Collection by the Curator revealed that the Collection contains some 86,000 items, some 62,000 make up the Archive. A considerable amount of work has gone into improving storage of the 97% of the Collection not on display.
-
b. Holding useful and useable information on the LIM Collection . The new museum IT system based on a central server and updated MODES software has seen a step change in collection management. The Curator and volunteers have been able to input much of the data located on the other 20 computers and hard drives.
-
c. Caring for and conserving the LIM Collection . A disposal room has been created which has made the process of identifying and disposing of unwanted material much easier. The Disposal Team consisting of the Curator and two Trustees meets once a month. The moratorium on collecting new material still stands which has allowed time and resource to improve the state of the existing Collection. Care and conservation of the Collection continues to be undertaken by the Curator supported by a small group of volunteers within available resources.

Users and their experiences
-
a. Be accessible to the public . The Museum is now open to the public on Fridays and Saturdays. Due to the security restriction on visitors imposed by the MoD all visitors have to be escorted and enough volunteers are only available to accept visitors on two days a week. Group visits are also available by negotiation on any day or evening during the week depending on the availability of specialist volunteer staff. Overall visitor numbers are steady and reflect pre-COVID figures. The Friends group are now running well attended events in support of the Museum.
-
b. Understanding and developing our audience . The audience is largely composed of those interested in military history, members of the Regiment or those researching their family connection to the Regiment. The impact on the wider audience in Lancashire is at present limited.
-
c. Engaging with our users and improving their experience . As was reported last year visitor feedback is very complimentary and extremely positive. This is because of the almost one to one hosting by volunteers.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment Lancashire Infantry Museum
Year ended 31st December 2023
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment Lancashire Infantry Museum ('the charity') for the year ended 31st December 2023.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Year ended 31st December 2023
1. General information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is Regimental Headquarters, The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment, Fulwood Barracks, Preston, PR2 8AA.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The judgements (apart from those involving estimations) that management has made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows:
-
The estimated useful life of the tangible fixed assets and the depreciation rates used thereon.
-
The net realisable value of slow moving stock.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
-
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
-
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
-
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
Year ended 31st December 2023
3. Accounting policies (continued)
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Heritage assets
The Charity holds and maintains the contents of The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment Lancashire Infantry Museum. The contents consist of the Regimental Collection of The Queen's Lancashire Regiment and its antecedents. The Collection is considerable it consists of three-dimensional objects, and two-dimensional material that illustrate the story of the Regiment and its people. Only some 20% of the Collection is on display the remaining 80% in the Reserve Collection is in store. The Collection has been donated by both public and Regiment over a period of 90 years. No value of these assets is included in the charity's balance sheet because reliable cost information is not available and, in the view of the Trustees, the significant costs of valuing such a unique collection outweigh the benefits to users of assessing the Trustees' stewardship of the assets, bearing in mind the charity's principal object.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost
Investments
Listed investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value being recognised in profit or loss.
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.
Financial instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. Finance costs are calculated so as to produce a constant rate of return on the outstanding liability.
