We’ve recently completed one of our biggest self-funded projects; Heating in the museum along with Solar Panels. During the year and especially summer the Solar Panels will generate power to offset the cost of heating the museum on cold days. As well as making the museum more comfortable for visitors in cold weather it also improves the conditions for the collection.
As a self-funded project, all of the money came from sales and donations in the heritage centre, so everyone who has visited has contributed to the project in some way.
