Project 2: 

Erect story boards around the walls of the open shelter on the ground floor.

Donate

The Memorial Hall and flood exhibition upstairs along with the Lifeboat exhibition on the ground floor is run by a group of local volunteers and relies solely on donations and the generosity of those visiting
