Dynamic Collections

Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole were pioneers in British military nursing and social care, following their work in the Crimean War in the 1850s. This project by the Florence Nightingale Museum explores their achievements and legacy.

Meaningful relationships were built with local communities and diverse experts in this Collecting Cultures project, which saw new ways of working trialled and access widened.

The Comic Creators project helped the London-based charity to diversify its audience by expanding its collections and events programme.

A partnership of heritage organisations used a Collecting Cultures grant to collect the work of local people.

This project, supported by our Collecting Cultures fund, brought together museums across Wales with local treasure-hunters, improving long-term relationships and collections.

This project allowed the museum to be more adventurous, deepen relationships with community partners and seek out new audiences for more contemporary collections.
