NOTTINGHAM CASTLE TRUST

NOTTINGHAM CASTLE TRUST was a trust that operated Nottingham Castle, a historical site in Nottingham, UK. The trust closed in November 2022 and went into liquidation due to financial difficulties, resulting in the closure of the castle. The trust's activities included advancing the education of the public about Nottingham Castle, its occupiers, the legend of Robin Hood, and their place in Nottingham and Great Britain's history; preserving and restoring the building; and establishing and maintaining a museum. The castle reopened after a multi-million pound refurbishment. The trust's business plan projected 300,000 visitors annually, however, financial challenges included a high staff turnover and the reliance on external companies and consultants to provide services. The charity's income for the financial year ending March 31, 2021 was £395,553 and the total expenditure was £731,069.
