Friends and families were welcome at the museum last weekend for a Family Fun Day. Donkeys from our friends The Donkey Breed Society were in attendance, WWI and WWII re-enactors with Molly the dog, purple poppy making and lots of other things to do made the day especially exciting.

We thank The Donkey Breed Society for all their help and support in putting the new exhibition together and of course, for attending on Saturday.

Don’t miss the new special exhibition ‘Purple Poppies: Animals in War’. This exhibition continues until 2025.
