Issue details

Creation of the Fashion Museum Foundation (WL)

The creation of a charity for the Fashion Museum was agreed in principle as part of the Heritage Services Business Plan 2022 – 2027 (ref: E3346). Heritage Services (the Service) has worked with Winckworth Sherwood to prepare the registration documentation and is now ready for the next step: registration with Companies house and subsequently the Charity Commission. The Service is seeking approval to proceed with set up. The Fashion Museum Foundation will be a registered charity and a Company Limited by guarantee. This charity aims to fulfil the Council’s vision for the Fashion Museum project through its objects. This replicates the existing successful model between the Service and the Roman Baths Foundation.
