Currently working with the #SouthYorkshireTransportMuseum in #Rotherham as their museum mentor supporting them on their accreditation application. Every time I visit, I am so inspired by their work, the objects, and the dedication of their #volunteers, who today ranged from 13-80 years in age 🙂

Very wintry start to Sunday morning, which always provides a challenge to those @leedsmuseums.bsky.social teams as to whether to open venues or not. After a flurry (!) of messages, definitely right decision to close today. Thanks go to all those involved today.
