From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
THE NATIONAL GAS MUSEUM TRUST
Aims and Objectives
The National Gas Museum Trust was established in 1997 to take over the responsibility for the former gas museums. Its two prime objectives as set out in its Memorandum and Articles of Association are:
1. to ensure that the artefacts that were previously held by the Museum at Bromley by Bow in London (now closed) and those currently held by the John Doran Gas Museum in Leicester are preserved for future generations.
2. to establish a ‘living collection’ by providing a mechanism that would ensure gas artefacts from the present and future are collected, maintained and displayed.
It has the standard Charitable Trust powers, enabling the Trust to:
· raise funds and invite and receive contributions · acquire, alter, improve and to charge or otherwise dispose of property · employ staff · establish or support any charitable trusts, associations or institutions formed for all or any of the Objects · co-operate with other charities, voluntary bodies and statutory authorities operating in furtherance of the Objects or similar charitable purposes and to exchange information and advice with them.
The Trust was originally incorporated on the 16 July 1997 as a private company limited by guarantee (Company Number 3404062).
