Current and Past Exhibitions
Our exhibitions bring the home front to life through carefully chosen artefacts, personal stories, and clear interpretation. Displays are designed to work for families, school groups, and anyone with an interest in how Britons lived, worked, and coped during the war years.
Themes we cover
Topics include daily life under rationing, civil defence and the Blitz, the role of women in the workforce, evacuation, and the contribution of local communities across the United Kingdom. We work with historians and community contributors to ensure accuracy and emotional resonance.
