<strong>MusLi</strong> - No qualifications needed: museums and new audiences<br />

tions which will continue the programme while building on its successes and achievements. Central to<br />

this will be the positive outcomes the programme has had in terms of moving people into employment<br />

and further learning.<br />

Key legacies of the In Touch Programme include a number of heritage organisations and museums piloting<br />

or interested in running similar programmes modelled on the In Touch programme. In Touch has<br />

been part of three European projects supported by the Grundtvig Lifelong Learning programme of the<br />

European Union. These include VoCH European Research Partnership, <strong>Museums</strong> <strong>Literacy</strong> (MUSLI) and<br />

Senior Volunteer Exchange Programme with the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest. Fundamental to the<br />

success of the programme are the volunteers and their achievements both personally and professionally.<br />

It is this that has provided inspiration and has contributed to the impact of the In Touch Volunteer<br />

Programme.<br />
