“these accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis as, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, NIMC will continue to operate for the foreseeable future.”
Significant events
- “In 2024-25, notable highlights included another successful Playful Museums Festival, a new partnership with Scouts NI to develop the new NI Challenge Badge, and our Early Years Museum Pilot Project with Libraries NI and the Department for Education.”
- “The GVLC project was shortlisted for the Museums + Heritage Awards 2025 in the Partnership category. The project received a 'Highly Commended' achievement at the awards ceremony in May.”
- “Due to delays in receiving the 2024-25 budget from DfC, NIMC staff were instructed by the Director to cancel scheduled fee-paying courses and postpone future training until after Autumn 2024 when the budget allocation was confirmed.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
