An open seminar for those working in museums and the related heritage sector
which will address the issue of lobbying decision-makers and the wider

to prevent cuts. Protect your heritage, protect your job!

Archaeology Group, and representatives from Resource, the Museums
Association, Prospect and the Royal Society of Chemistry.
