In these unprecedented times, many people across the world are facing unforseen hardship. Of course, the Museum is no different. We have been truly moved by everyone who has contacted us asking how they may help, so the following are ways that you can help towards the continued existence of the Museum.
The Museum is entirely funded by the revenue we generate from our visitors and our events and unlike many large museums, receives no direct funding from Government. Right now, as we are unable to open, we have no income.
Sadly, there are a great many people in the same position, with jobs at risk, families to provide for, loved ones to care for and bills to pay. We are not unique.
