We’ll Meet Again
Homefront Museum
Welcome to We’ll Meet Again!
We were thrilled and greatly honoured to receive a signed
photograph and letter from Dame Vera Lynn, giving her full
endorsement of our past work with our Mobile Museum,
educating children about life during WW2, and for the current
Homefront Museum we have now built at Freiston Shore. We
had written to her previously, inviting her to look at our past
work educating children, supporting charities and the new
direction we are heading with a static museum.
We are an award-winning WW2 Home Front Museum, based at
Freiston Shore, near Boston, Lincolnshire, opening our doors for
the first time on 11th August 2017.
We previously took our mobile Museum to schools and other
venues, teaching, demonstrating and displaying our huge
collection of wartime memorabila, receiving the highest teaching
distinction from the Nottinghamshire Eucation authority, for our
joint work with the Perlethorpe Enviromental Education Centre.
We have now opened a state of the art static Museum so are
still able to offer our unique, highly rated and critically acclaimed
teaching experience to children in a safe and secure
environment, as well as display our vast collection of WW1 and
WW2 artefacts, to all.
We are perfectly located adjacent to a series of WW2 coastal
defences, which form part of the educational and historical
experience.
Wartime History Brought to Life
Pride of Boston 2018
Award Winners
We were thoroughly delighted and overwhelmed when presented the
overall annual Pride of Boston award, by the Boston Preservation
Trust Civic Group.
Dudley Bryant, chairman of the trust, said members aim to 'highlight
the best, and sometimes the worst, of Boston's historic town centre'.
He said: "We at the preservation trust keep an eye on what is
happening in and around Boston so that we can recognise some of
those we believe have made a significant or positive difference to the
fabric, the reputation or the wellbeing of Boston.
"Throughout the year we award certificates of excellence to those we
wish to recognise and then we try to determine the best of the best at
the end of the year."
Mayor of Boston, Cllr Judith Skinner, presented the awards, and said:
"We have many historic and unique areas and it is wonderful to see
everyone here who take part in maintaining the town for others to
enjoy. You should all be proud of your contribution."
