The Museum is reopening on Easter Weekend, 20th April 2025 with a new exhibition.
We need your help! - The exhibition for this year in the Hendred Museum is WW2.
Do you have any memorabilia or family memories of what it was
like living in the village of East Hendred during that time?
Were members of your family in the Home Guard?
Do you have any photographs of the uniform they wore?
Do you have memories about RAF Harwell and the runway which was in part of this parish.
What was school like at that time with the evacuees sharing the classrooms?
We have information about the brave men who went to war and those who never returned, but it is the personal memories that we would love to hear about.
We are really interested in knowing how people managed in this village over the war years, how neighbours looked out for each other and gave support when it was needed the most.
Please do get involved and help us make this exhibition one to remember.
