Once again the museum was pleased to welcome Jayne Darling to the museum as part of the 2016 Thetford Great Festival. Visitors coming along to see Jayne included the Mayor of Thetford Terry Jermy, his consort Corinne Fulford and Elizabeth Truss MP. Watch our website for details later about our 2017 events.

Many thanks to Maria Cooke for the photographs.

The weekend of July 16th and 17th was very busy for the museum. On the Saturday we took a party out to view some of the out of Thetford locations including Bardwell, Homington and Brandon. The coach used was a 1958 Bedford. This trip was a sell out as is the one in September. We will be staging 3 coach tours in 2017.

On the Sunday the museum team, platoon and the Jones`s Van went off to Kings Lynn for their Home Front event.

More pictures.

The museum had a great day with the George Formby Experience, over 200 people came along to see and sing along.

The museum was very pleased to send our Jones`s Van and members of the platoon to the civic reception of the new mayor of Thetford Terry Jermy and his consort Corinne Fulford.
