Charitable Aims

The museum is not just a store of artefacts and a preservation centre for all types of historic memorabilia both civil and military, it also aims to be a hub for ex-service personnel and disadvantaged youngsters or vulnerable adults to meet and access services tailored to their needs.

Any Charity profits are redistributed to achieve the above aims.

The museum also provides volunteer posts for the long term unemployed.
