Sleaford Museum Trust
'Sleaford is a small, rural market town in the southern half of Lincolnshire, England, with a population of around 16,000. Its origins date back at least as far as the Iron Age, and Sleaford Museum Trust is proud to act as current custodians of the surviving, tangible traces of that past, which it holds in trust for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations.
'Sleaford's first local history museum was opened in 1972 by Sleaford & District Civic Trust in premises in the Market Place. When the building was sold in 1982 the museum had to close, and the collection has since been kept in storage until another home can be found for its permanent display. To this end, the Sleaford Museum Trust was formed in 1994 by an association of dedicated people with an interest in preserving and disseminating the history and heritage of the town.
'In the short term, until display premises and suitable long-term funding can be found, the Trust has embarked upon what it considers to be the next best thing - a virtual museum accessible on the internet. We achieved this with a grant of just under £10,000 from the Lottery Fund's Local Heritage Initiative.'
