Wirksworth Heritage Centre

'Wirksworth Heritage Centre was created by the Wirksworth Civic Society over thirty years ago with the aim of interpreting the history of the town for visitors and the local community ... Its Mission is "to preserve, promote and make accessible the stories of the town and people of Wirksworth". Its Vision is "to be an independent, financially sustainable heritage organisation, which, through the use of its museum collection and outreach learning programmes, makes a relevant and widely valued contribution to the culture and economy of Wirksworth". ... Our evening programme of lectures runs throughout the year.'
