# Complaints procedure

The British Motor Museum is grateful for the support we receive, and we aim to maintain high standards in all our work. We will always take your complaint seriously and treat you politely, fairly, and respect your confidence. 

## How do I make a complaint?

You can make a complaint in writing, by email or by telephone. If you know the name of the Department which is relevant to your complaint, or the name or title of an appropriate member of staff, please make your complaint direct to them.

Alternatively please address your letter or email to:

Customer Services – Marketing Department  
British Motor Museum  
Banbury Road  
Gaydon  
Warwickshire  
CV35 0BJ

Email: [enquiries@britishmotormuseum.co.uk](mailto:enquiries@britishmotormuseum.co.uk)

To help us address your complaint and investigate fully, please provide us with as much information as possible, including; 

- Your full name and postal address
- A phone number where we can contact you should we need additional information
- An explanation of the reasons for your complaint, the date / time period to which it relates

If you email your complaint, please state whether you would prefer a reply by email or by letter.

We are a member of the Fundraising Regulator, following the Codes of Fundraising Practice and will take all complaints or fundraising concerns seriously.

## What happens next?

We will reply within ten working days of receiving your complaint.  
    
If it is not possible to give you a full reply within this time, for example, if your complaint requires a more detailed investigation, we will give you an interim response telling you what is being done to deal with your complaint, when you can expect the full reply and from whom.

The full reply will include details of who to contact next if you believe that your complaint has not been dealt with properly.  This will normally be the appropriate senior manager.

## Our aim is to ensure that:

- Making a complaint is as easy as possible
- We treat it seriously whether it is made by telephone, letter or email
- We deal with it promptly, politely and, where appropriate, informally (e.g. by telephone)
- We respond in the right way - for example with an explanation, or an apology where we have got things wrong, or information on any action taken.

**We learn from complaints and use them to improve our service. ****Your personal details will be kept on file only for the purposes of recording and dealing with your complaint.**

## **Fundraising Regulator**

We hope to be able to resolve your complaint in a fair and timely manner. However, if your complaint relates to fundraising and you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Fundraising Regulator who will independently investigate your complaint. You can contact them by following the link below:
