FRIENDS OF THE ROYAL GREEN JACKETS MUSEUM
The Museum Trustees for Royal Green Jackets have introduced a scheme to encourage past and present members of the Regiment, Museum visitors and others to show their appreciation of the Museum and to contribute to its continuous improvement by subscribing annually to be a Friend. The specific objectives of the scheme are:
 |
To create the financial headroom to pursue a programme of continuous improvement of the Museum |
 |
To sustain and enhance the Museum's displays through greater use of inter-active, audio-visual and computer-based technology |
 |
To underwrite a marketing strategy to attract greater visitor numbers |
Membership and Subscription
 |
Annual Membership: |
£24 (extra donations are apreciated) paid by annual, quarterly or monthly banker's standing order, exceptionally payment may be made in cash or by cheque. |
 |
Life Membership: |
a single donation of £500 |
As a charity, The Royal Green Jackets Museum Trust is able to recover a substantial additional sum from the Inland Revenue by Friends who sign the appropriate Gift Aid Declaration and are taxpayers. The benefit in respect of each subscription is currently 28p for each £1 donated. Friends who pay tax at the higher rate are able to claim higher rate tax relief.
