The refurbished Museum now looks magnificent, but sadly the need for regular monthly donations hasn't gone away ...

Last month, the Museum welcomed the decision by Wisbech Town Council to award it a £20,000 grant for a further 12-months.

However, the Museum's future remains at risk, and it still needs companies, charities and individuals to pledge financial support towards its annual running costs if it is to survive.

In March this year, the five-year Refounders’ Scheme that brought vital support into the Museum ended. Since 2017, this successful scheme brought in £35,000 in pledged donations each year. The Museum now urgently needs to find ways of filing this huge funding-gap if it is to continue its vibrant community programming and keep the building open.

Please consider contributing a monthly sum by joining either the new Patrons Scheme or the Supporters Circle.
