Lieutenant Colonel Alastair Todd LVO, Private Secretary to HRH The Duke of Gloucester, recently sent a letter to the Museum on behalf of His Royal Highness. In it, he congratulates us on receiving Gold in the ‘Large Visitor Attraction of the Year’ category at the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence.
The letter has been copied below, or you can read a scan of the letter.
“His Royal Highness The Duke of Gloucester, as Patron of the Black Country Living Museum, has asked me to convey his hearty congratulations on the news that you achieved ‘Gold’ in the ‘Large Visitor Attraction of the Year’ category of the Visit England Awards for Excellence.
This is an outstanding and well-deserved achievement which is a fitting reward for the hard work, enthusiasm and commitment of you and your team who have made the Museum a ‘must-see’ destination. The £30 million Forging Ahead project has clearly been an enormous success and has contributed to increased visitor numbers as well as a renewed focus on the Museum and all that it has to offer.
The Duke would wish to convey his very best wishes to you and all at the Black Country Living Museum, and looks forward to visiting again in the future.”
