This summer we are being joined by Stover Canal Trust to celebrate the work their volunteers have undertaken over the last 25 years.

The exhibition will be based in the main museum space over the summer holidays, and will display dioramas of the canal, as well as objects found during years of excavation work.

Come and see the brilliant work the trust has undertaken, and if you are looking for a new volunteering opportunity, come and chat to members of Stover Canal Trust to see how you can help!
