It’s not just a building, it’s a valued community resource. History, learning, teaching, art and Charles Dickens. A source of income for the council, an investment in tourism, wonder and awe at our past for our future generations. https://t.co/uditRdHHaF
Looking for support at 11am today outside the Conservancy Board Building in Rochester High Street, highlighting the council's sale of the building. Medway Messenger will be there. We don't want to loose half of Medway's museum so please come along if you can.
Only 2 weeks to save our Conservancy Building at the Guildhall Museum Rochester
