As part of our Collections Development policy, it is our aim to record people’s memories of living, working, and community activities to accompany objects accessioned into the collection and for exhibiting within displays and digital content, for example on the Museum’s website or social media. Initially transcribers will work on our upcoming punk exhibition.
