BBOWT continues to hold a healthy financial
position. Over the year good financial management
has enabled us to control and slightly reduce our
overall expenditure while income from membership,
donations, legacies, grants, corporate partners and
trading all held steady or in some cases increased.

T he income for 2017/18 includes money raised (£604k) as part
of the Duxford Old River appeal. Looking ahead there are
significant uncertainties, including the impact of Brexit on
agri-environment funding (which currently comes via the EU) and
changing regulation for charitable fundraising. We will continue to
adopt a cautious approach to managing our finances, giving room
to invest in new activities. This means we will be in the best place to
realise the ambition of our current Strategic Plan for 2016-2021.
