The Museum’s fund-raising appeal. As you will be aware, the Museum has suffered along with many, if not all, independent museums during the current pandemic. We all hope the future is bright, but funds are vital to ensuring the survival of this unique site and its important collections.

To this end the museum has set up an appeal, to raise in £20,000 in 2020. Please consider a donation – here: https://www.goldengiving.com/fundraising/BSM2020
