ABOUT IRONBRIDGE GORGE MUSEUM<br />
Founded in 1967, the <strong>Ironbridge</strong> Gorge Museum Trust is a<br />
registered charity (503717-R) with twin aims of education<br />
and heritage conservation and is one of the largest<br />
independent museums in the UK. The Trust cares for 35<br />
scheduled monuments and listed buildings within the<br />
<strong>Ironbridge</strong> Gorge World Heritage Site and operates ten<br />
award-winning museums, which collectively tell the story of<br />
the <strong>Ironbridge</strong> Gorge’s universal significance for its unique<br />
role in the development of the Industrial Revolution. Pre<br />
Covid-19 the Museum welcomed c480,000 visitors, including<br />
62,000 school children on organised school trips. Following<br />
a difficult couple of years the Trust is working hard to build<br />
back its audience numbers through an extensive programme<br />
of events and activities. As well as ten museums, the sites<br />
in the Trust’s care include a research library, a tourist<br />
information centre, two youth hostels, archaeological<br />
monuments, historic woodlands, housing, two chapels, and<br />
two Quaker burial grounds. All of its Collections are covered<br />
under Arts Council England’s Designation Scheme; which<br />
‘identifies and celebrates outstanding collections, which<br />
deepen our understanding of the world and what it means to<br />
be human.’<br />
