What the charity does

Friends of Campbeltown Museum was founded in 1991 as a pressure-group to campaign for overdue improvements to the Museum and to secure the appointment of a curator. These aims were ultimately achieved and the charity now exists to support the Museum financially (e.g., by the purchase of equipment) and by helping staff the Museum, when required, and providing volunteers to assist at events. The Friends also help maintain public awareness of the Museum and remain alert to the possibility that, as funding for public services dwindles, there may be a future need to campaign on behalf of the Muse…

Why there's no Clarity Score yet

The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Friends of Campbeltown Museum is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
