Lot 1

Funding the Future: Unlocking Potential at Kilmartin Museum A Museums Galleries Scotland Funded Project Project Background Kilmartin Museum is reliant on ticket sales for 89% of general income with the rest being made up from grants, service level agreements and donations. Argyll's tourist economy is fragile and reliance on ticket sales is creating financial challenges. There is a need to diversify income streams and unlock the potential that exists especially for philanthropic donations. Staff and trustee changes have left KM without team members who have fundraising skills. Project Summary Building on other strategic work, this project seeks to remove barriers and unlock the potential for fundraising and individual donations to achieve an alternative long term sustainability model. A professional Fundraiser and Trainer will be engaged to work alongside staff and trustees to develop a Funding Strategy for KM identify staff and trustees to be trained then in the short-term, train, support and mentor them to deliver this, identifying how to embed learning and skills within the organisation to move the Museum towards long term sustainability. The project aims to start in August 2026 and will run for 18 months including final reporting. The project will be managed by the recently established Trustee Executive Group who will make day to day decisions and report every 6 weeks to the main Board of Trustees. The Fundraising and Training Consultant will work over a period of 18 months. An indicative Project Plan has been developed, and this will need to be fine-tuned.
