Save Our Museum
Fenland Aviation museum is in danger of being lost without your help.
Our lease ends in 4 years time and we will never be able to afford the new lease rental costs the owner is asking for. We need to raise £50,000 at least to try and purchase the site. Double what the land is worth but what the owner wants. Otherwise we will have to try and find a new home and relocate, the cost of which is likely to be even more. If we can't it will all have to be sold, given away or worse still scrapped with the history being lost forever
Over the last 30 yrs our members have recovered crashed WW2 aircraft from sites all over East Anglia. These have then been displayed with the story of the crews that often made the ultimate sacrifice for the Allied forces. Despite our small size the local history recorded in our museum cannot be underestimated. We have had relatives of some the lost aviators visit us from as far afield as New Zealand to see the remains of the aircraft their family member was in when they perished and many a tear and story has been shared.
Please donate what you can to preserve our heritage.
