Chesham Museum news

Education update: It’s been a very busy start to 2023 for us. The Rotary Club of Chesham generously offered to fund eleven of our object loan boxes for local schools and community groups. Hawridge and Cholesbury School, Newtown School plus local Beaver and Cub groups have already benefitted from the funding, so please visit our website learning page to book a box or workshop. The Rotary Club have also given us funding to start a ‘Technology Through Time’ box too so we would love any donations of old technology you may have like a Sony Walkman, dictaphone , cassette players and old hand held electronic games please. 

Our partnership with Bucks Mind continues to flourish and we are busy making up more reminiscence boxes – our 1950s household box was so popular Chesham Leys Care Home said the residents didn’t want to give it back!

We had a great time at The Elgiva Open Day and we would like to say a big thank you to the families and Beaver Scouts who trialled our beautifully designed Chesham Eye Spy family trail. Free to download on the revamped website which is also well worth a visit. We are always looking for new volunteers to join our hard working team.
