Proposed on behalf of: Our collections policy is quite broad.Over the last few years we have been fortunate enough to receive a number of donations of artefacts and photographs. We store these within the Townhouse and have exhibitions running inour downstairs meeting room.We have documented about 1500 items at present but we require professional software to correctly manage this. We hope to purchase Modes Compact software which is specially designed for smaller museums and collections and supports Standards for Accreditation. It allows you to collate, manage and share collections information effectively. We hope that by having a recognised database more people will be able to access our collection.
