A pre-New Year Appeal
I have just returned from a short walk to the post box, where Mr P’s Wessex instrument panel photo CD is now waiting collection by the Royal Mail – so this post is inspired by the damp Nottinghamshire air and the various requests for support being mooted around various sections of the forum. 😀
Details have just been posted in the normal place about some major roadway improvements on the main museum access road that are being planned for early in the New Year.
This work is now taking place thanks to agreement being reached with the landlords and a significant financial contribution (just under a five figure sum) being made towards the work by the museum itself.
As a well established (43 years) Registered Charity (No.256434) and an Accredited Museum; the museum already has the appropriate financial structure in place to receive financial contributions towards such beneficial capital projects and has a proven record of delivering on such schemes. As such it would welcome donations towards the cost of these major improvement works and anyone wishing to make such a contribution could do so by using the following online donation scheme!
I’m aware that this is not a glitzy return to flight scheme but I believe that it represents a sound investment proposition, especially if you’re planning to attend any of the following museum events in 2012:
Indoor Aeroboot – 3rd March 2012
Tribute to the V-Force – 28th April 2012
Cockpit-Fest 2012 – 16th & 17th June 2012 (still waiting for an event listing!) 😮
Not only will you be supporting the museum in an important infrastructure project that improves the condition of the main access road, but you will also be helping to minimise the wear and tear on your own vehicle and trailer if and when you visit the museum!
You know that it makes sense – any contributions gratefully accepted! 😉
Happy New Year to everyone!!
