HELP US TO STAY OPEN 7 DAYS PER WEEK

All the team here at the museum want to thank everyone who has given to both of our Covid-19 appeal raffles held in late 2020 & early 2021. As promised, following the Government’s “roadmap” out of restrictions, the funds raised have been used directly for the purpose of reopening the museum to visitors.

To see the lucky winners of both our appeal raffles visit https://www.nationalmotorcyclemuseum.co.uk/bike-raffle/

 

Whilst the funds raised so far have allowed us to reopen, we are still short of our original £500k reopening target. Therefore, we ask that you support us by entering our exciting winter raffle, or donating directly to our appeal fund. Details of both of these options can be seen by clicking the links at the bottom of this page.

Our appeals were given extra significance by the fact that, in late 2020, the museum received the devastating news that we have been turned down for a grant from the Government’s Culture Recovery Fund. At that time we received an e-mail from the Heritage Lottery Fund (who were partly responsible for administering the scheme) that our application “did not meet the criteria for the programme, and the board has decided not to award a grant through the Culture Recovery Fund for Heritage”.

We cannot begin to describe what a blow this news was, and adds even more importance to our current appeals, one of which gives the chance to win one of two stunning museum restored classic motorcycles.
