Rotary Club of St Neots helps to fund Museum travelling display case

The Rotary Club of St Neots and Cambridgeshire County Council have generously helped to fund a brand new travelling display case which St Neots Museum will be using to take the museum out and about across the local area this summer.

The case has been built by museum volunteer Brian Guinee and has been designed as a flat pack unit which can easily be moved from one venue to another in a small car.

The travelling unit was the idea of the museum’s Learning Officer, Lesley Sainsbury and features a selection of local photographs, information panels and museum objects which focus on four aspects of St Neots and the surrounding area; people, pastimes, countryside and town.

Learning Officer, Lesley Sainsbury writes:

“We are very grateful to the Rotary Club of St Neots and Cambridgeshire County Council for making possible the development of this unique travelling display case which will enable the museum to bring the stories of local life in the past to a wider and more diverse selection of local people.”
