BCTV Spring Event -
Wednesday 14 May 2025 at 2pm and 2.40pm
Booking now open - email or call the office to reserve your place today
 
MUSEUM OF BRANDS
 
The collection takes you on a nostalgic journey through 200 years of
social change, culture and lifestyle. It is an exciting new way of
looking at history through the things that generations of families
have thrown away. It’s a journey back through the memories of your
childhood, all brought back to life again by the Time Tunnel – a
fascinating insight into how we have lived since Victorian times.

 

Depending on numbers attending, there will be either one or two
introductory talks given by the museum staff. Your time will be
confirmed when you book. Afterwards members can roam the museum and
maybe even use the small cafe where you can purchase food and drink
independently, as refreshments are not included in this event. The
cost per head to include admission to the museum and the talk is £15
per person (member and guest).

 

To book - please contact the office by email or phone and once your
place is confirmed we will provide details of how to pay.
