news #LoveBrooklands campaign launched to support Museum through lockdown
The Museum has launched an innovative new campaign called #LoveBrooklands to help keep the Museum going during the lockdown caused by the Coronavirus situation. This new initiative gives everyone the chance to help support the Museum and the vital work it does to look after its collections, buildings and the estate. Although the Museum is closed in accordance with government advice, the cost of caring for Brooklands continues. By contributing to the #LoveBrooklands campaign, you can help the Museum through this difficult period when it would normally be funded largely through visitors. There is a dedicated page on
the Brooklands Museum website for #LoveBrooklands where you can donate any sum of money. Whatever you can afford, it is truly appreciated and every penny goes towards running the Museum and supporting its work. To find out more and make a donation,

Members and non-members alike can provide a long-lasting difference through a legacy, while non-Members can join Brooklands to become a Member. This way, they can enjoy all of the benefits that
Virtual Vintage Festival
11,000 Members already do with free entry to the Museum when it reopens, as well as exciting events, tours and talks.
Whatever you can do to help support
Brooklands, everyone at the Museum is most grateful. #LoveBrooklands
In addition to sharing some of the best content from last year’s event, the Museum will be running many of the popular festival activities digitally.
The Brooklands Vintage Festival is heading online to celebrate vintage fashion, music and style on Saturday 16 May. Even though the Museum is closed, this is the perfect chance for Members and visitors to put their hair up, grab their best period outfit and lace up their dance shoes.
4 BROOKLANDS BULLETIN | MAY - JUNE 2020
Everyone is invited to join in, so keep an eye on the Museum’s social channels on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the virtual event schedule. This will give you plenty of time to get your favourite period outfit ready for the Best Dressed Competition. There will also be a chance to stock up on vintage gear with online offers from vintage sellers, download family activities and to try out virtual dance classes.
