Museum Development England have revealed the results of the Annual Museums Survey for 2024.
The 2024 Annual Museum Survey, which surveyed non-National museums in spring this year, provides a comprehensive report on the operating context of museums in England. The findings highlight the ongoing impact of the cost-of-living crisis, and the resulting pressures placed on these institutions.
The 2024 report emphasises the uphill battle museums face in their post-pandemic recovery due to rising expenditure. Museums deserve recognition for the remarkable work of their volunteers and their creative approaches to diversifying income streams. In less exceptional times, museums might have been able to fully recover from the pandemic, but the increased costs associated with high inflation and contracting funding opportunities have hindered their efforts.
