Steam engineWe have been awarded a grant under the DCMS Cultural Recovery Fund. This is such good news as it will ensure we can survive until we can open again in April 2021. Fingers and toes crossed that next year will be back to something like normal!

The money helps cover revenue costs such as insurance and essential repairs. It also includes a sum towards investigating a new way to deliver our education projects and events. The aim is to be able to go online whenever we have to. For example, we are hoping to hold our Halloween event in the half term week but if we are locked down then it will be available online instead. Suddenly we are all film producers….well, fledgling ones.
