Read the full October Newsletter from South West Museum Development
In this newsletter, we can reveal that we have secured funding for Growing Together, the continuation and next stage of Travelling Together! Travelling Together participant museums will return to the project, providing opportunities for these museums to continue to learn from each other and take their next steps. Importantly, it will also fund a whole new cohort of up to eight museums.
As part of Travelling Together, and by extension Growing Together, we have launched a free eLearning course for museums who want to develop their understanding of EDI. Through six modules, learners will discover how good EDI practice can be implemented in all aspects of their museum, from leadership and recruitment through to front of house and collections.
We are also collecting data on collections hazards through a survey, which will inform future training and resources. In addition, you can also find out about our area’s Accreditation successes, museum news and upcoming sector grants in this month’s newsletter.
