Hello everyone
My first post here so please be gentle! Season's greetings from Nottingham Industrial Museum... yes, we are back up and running after being closed by Nottingham City Council in 2009! We are now a Registered Charity (1167388) and fully volunteer-led, relying on admission charges, donations and fundraising to keep afloat.
My name is Helen and I've recently joined Nottingham Industrial Museum as the volunteer Marketing and Communications Director. We now have a presence on Facebook:
https://www.facebook.com/NottinghamIndustrialMuseum/) and Twitter
https://twitter.com/NottIndMuseum as well as developing a more user-friendly website and drafting a new fold-out leaflet. In our galleries we still have our Fowlers, the Basford Beam Engine and static engines, plus a growing reputation as being Nottingham's hidden gem.
We would be very grateful for your help and support - please come and visit us, or if you're too far afield please engage with us on social media. I have no budget for advertising so have to rely on the goodwill of interested folks to help spread the word.
In case you are in the area or fancy a day out, our next Family Steam Up will be on Sunday 29 January from 11am to 4pm
https://www.facebook.com/events/1708783352769375/. It's only £4 per adult and £2 for a child, concessions and students... Bargain!
I look forward to chatting with you, as well as hearing about your visits to us and seeing the photos you have taken.
In the meantime, merry Christmas and best wishes for 2017!
Helen
