All We have been involved in a light touch way with the Barrow Clump excavation (see Digging for Britain in a few weeks) and are running a conference shortly in support of Breaking Ground Heritage. Some of the excavators visited the Museum and we ran a visit to the excavation and have taken part in Open Days at the site.

For my dissertation I am looking into whether Regimental Museums can engage with the Veterans community to combat the dominant military narrative on PTSD, and how they can then present this to a wider public to promote critical engagement and empathy. I am really (really!) struggling to find examples of museums that have worked with Veterans and wondered if anyone here had any experiences they would be willing to share?
