The Museum, however,
cannot accept every item it
is offered. As with
all museums, we work to a
policy that sets out what
items we collect. For
example, we do not collect
office equipment or sewing
machines. This policy also
prevents us from collecting
duplicate items. We are also
limited by space as our
exhibit and store areas are
almost at capacity.
For these reasons,
the Museum can only accept
exhibits on the basis of our
Curator's decision.
All potential donations must
be discussed with the
Curator in the first
instance. Please do not
bring items to the Museum,
unless agreed by the
Curator, as they
will not be accepted.
The best way to contact the
Curator is by filling in the
online form in this section
of the website or by writing
to the address given below.
If the item fits in with our
collecting policy, the
Curator will contact you; if
you have not heard within
one month of submitting your
enquiry this is because we
are unable to accept this
item into the collection.
The Curator cannot
provide valuations or
consider exhibits that are
being offered for sale.
