Donation to the Trust
The Trust is delighted to announce that it has received a grant of £1,300 from the Bucks Masonic Centenary Fund and a further donation from the Grenville Lodge towards the cost of a computerised MODES system. This will enable the Trust to fully document its collections and continue to meet Museum Accreditation requirements.
Lieutenant Colonel Simon Wilkinson, BMMT Chairman, received the cheque from Bucks MCF representative Andrew Hough at the Old Gaol in Buckingham.
