  • The opportunity to ‘get involved’ contributing your ideas and feedback to the museum’s development and Friends scheme itself.

As part of Friends membership the Museum Team will keep you up to date with exciting museum developments in an exclusive Friends’ newsletter issued 3 times per year. Membership also offers discounted and free entry to a growing range of exciting museum events. As a Friend you can also meet like-minded people from around the world.
