Support the Museum

Visit or come to an event

We’d love to welcome you to the museum or one of our events. Every visit encourages our volunteers, and ticket income from paid events goes straight back into supporting the museum.

Become a 'Museum Friend'

The museum is run and maintained by volunteers and has charity status. We are fortunate to be supported by many Museum Friends* who take out an annual membership in return for newsletters and the knowledge that they are helping to keep the museum going.

£12 per year for an individual, £15 per year for a family, club or educational group

The museum is run and maintained by volunteers and has charity status.

We do not receive any regular funding form any source, so we rely entirely on memberships and donations to run the museum - to secure our town's heritage and make it available for everyone. A donation of any amount would be very much appreciated.

We are enrolled in the PayPal Giving Fund and you can donate here: paypal.com/gb/fundraiser/charity/3259337

Currently, we need funds to support our move to the new site ( see Future Museum Project ). We also need funds just to keep the lights on at the current museum, while we work on preparing everything for the move.

We currently have a Go Fund Me to help us get the new museum space ready.

You are also welcome to mail cheques, pay into our bank account, visit us at the museum with cash...

Thank you!

Add to our collections or knowledge

Do you have something old and don't quite know what to do with it?
An artefact? A document? A photograph?
Putting things, that are part of our local story, into our care is a great way to contribute to the museum.
