Nottingham Industrial Museum, the hidden<br />
treasure in the courtyards of Wollaton Hall and<br />
Deer Park have not let the Covid 19 emergency get<br />
them down as their dedicated team of volunteers<br />
continue to roll out the accolades.<br />
Earlier in <strong>2020</strong>, when travel was still possible, a team<br />
from the World History Project travelled to the UK to<br />
collect material for a series of videos that form part<br />
of the curriculum in approximately 8000 schools<br />
across the world.<br />
To the delight of the researchers, presenters and<br />
production team some of the most significant and<br />
affecting of the videos features the story of the life<br />
of ‘Nailers’ in Victorian times. The story adapted<br />
and portrayed by NIM volunteer Avi Benn (aka Mrs<br />
Mary Ann Bird in her Victorian Kitchen exhibit) has<br />
been quoted by researcher, Professor Trevor Getz<br />
from University of San Francisco State as ‘giving<br />
an extraordinarily well-designed, pedagogically<br />
intentional, and compelling history’.<br />
This was further acknowledged as the Museum were<br />
named as Finalists in both the ‘Volunteer of the Year’<br />
and ‘Small Charity – Big Impact’ categories of the<br />
East Midlands Charity Awards, on the same day! A<br />
fitting response to their hard work and dedication.<br />
Previews of the films can be viewed at www.<br />

Nottingham Industrial Museum will re-open visit<br />
