As a business we believe in investing in our community as local residents and volunteers we provided our experience, expertise and creativity to help develop the Bewdley Museum site with support from the Heritage Lottery Fund. We also helped establish annual community events (Discover Bewdley) and establish the Bewdley Heritage Trail created by local young residents. The Grade 11 listed Museum site needed renovating, restoring and revitalising and once derelict buildings such as The Brass Foundry were transformed into beautiful usable spaces housing new exhibitions and an education room. The site also has a busy year round cultural events programme and has extended into the adjacent park establishing an ancient orchard, a sculpture garden and a music in the park programme. The museum site now hosts residents artists and craftspeople, has a cafe and restaurant and a diverse range of living history exhibits.IMG_2336IMG_2351IMG_2438IMG_2395IMG_2389IMG_2398
