1. Chairman’s Report

This was a year of consolidation for the museum. It was the first year, post-pandemic, that the museum was able to open for the complete season. Any thought of ‘returning to normal’ were soon quashed. We realised last year, how much people seemed to have changed over the course of the pandemic, but we now realised that these changes were quite long term. The museum had to adapt the way it was run to accommodate these changes. Having been hopeful that all our shielding volunteers would return in 2022, many of them chose not to or were still shielding. Additionally, less new people came forward to volunteer than we were used to. Also, the incidence of covid remained quite high, resulting in a steady stream of staff and volunteers isolating with positive covid tests.

Following the award of a Heritage Lottery Grant for the ‘Earl of Abergavenny’ project at the end of 2021, our long term Museum Manager was appointed as Project Manager, remaining as Museum Manager for 1 day/week. A temporary part time Administrative Assistant was appointed to run the museum in her absence.

Despite all the covid generated problems, we managed to keep the museum open seven days/week and the visitors came in in reasonable numbers. Plenty of events were held over the course of the season and, as with 2021, I can write a pretty positive report though it is tinged with concerns for the long term financial position of the museum

2. About the Trust

Portland Museum Trust is a 'Not for Profit Company Limited by Guarantee', registered in June 2007, operating as an independent charitable trust. The Trust took over the management and operational responsibility for Portland Museum from Weymouth & Portland Borough Council in March 2008, under the terms of a 25 year lease. The Council remained the owner of the Museum until April 2019 when a Dorset-wide reorganization of local councils saw the abolition of Weymouth & Portland Borough Council, and the creation of the new Dorset Council. Portland Museum became an asset of Dorset Council, initially for an interim year. The lease

2

was sublet to Portland Town Council, an arrangement that has continued throughout 2022.

The Trust is a Registered Charity (No.1132576), and its operation is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. Its objects are –

"The objects for which the Trust is formed are (but only in so far as the same are charitable): the advancement of the education of the public by providing and maintaining a museum of artefacts and specimens relating to the natural sciences, natural history, archaeology, literature, music, the fine and decorative arts, antiquities and local history relating in particular to the Island of Portland"

The Board of Trustees has 8 members, assisted by our Accountant, Adele Russell. The active recruitment drive for some new trustees continued to allow for imminent retirement of other trustees

3. Links to other Organisations

7. 2022 Season

During the 2022 season, the museum employed two part-time members of staff. Lucy Watkins worked 3 days/week as the Earl of Abergavenny Project Manager (financed by the NLHF grant) and 1 day/week as Museum Manager (financed by the museum). Chloe Taylor was employed as an Administrative Assistant by the museum for 4 days/week. Supported by volunteers, this level of staffing allowed the museum to be open 7 days/week during much of the season.

Grants

  1. The award of the grant from NLHF to the museum at the end of 2021 was very exciting. It meant that the museum was going to be very busy throughout 2022. The first job for the Project Manager and David Carter (Trustee overseeing the ‘Earl of Abergavenny’ project who was one of the dive team, led by Edward Cumming, that surveyed and recovered a large number of artefacts from the wreck), was to recruit volunteers to take part in the skills training on ‘Diving into the Digital Archives if the Earl of Abergavenny.’ Around 40 volunteers signed up and the majority stuck with the project.

The training on 3D digital photography was carried out by our partners, MSDS Marine. Using an iPad Pro and a specialised app, volunteers soon acquired the skills to produce stunning 3D images of the artefacts.

The volunteers also learned other key skills, including training in how to use Modes, an electronic data base for museum objects; Condition Assessment of objects and Collection Care.

Our other partner, the Nautical Archaeology Society produced a training manual on the above skills training that is now freely available to all on our newly revised website

This work continued on a smaller scale when the museum opened to the public. The upstairs office and work space proved to be very useful as it allowed project work to continue when visitors were in the rest of the museum.

7

Over the course of the year, David Carter and Lucy Watkins gave talks on the project to various groups and conferences. Additionally, they took the pop-up museum and a handling collection of Earl of Abergavenny objects to various events in the area, assisted by some of the project volunteers.

  1. We are grateful to Portland Town Council for the generous donation of a grant of £3,000 in exchange for the museum giving all residents of Porland free entry to the museum.

  2. We are also grateful to Dorchester Council for a grant of £5,000 as part of their Revenue Support Program.

Events

Over the course of 2022, we were able to carry out more events than we had in 2021. The threat of Covid had abated quite a bit, though there were still some outbreaks throughout the year, but not on the scale of 2021. We still maintained cleaning standards and kept the Perspex sheet at the front desk to protect our front of house staff. We had to cope with several Covid cases amongst staff and volunteers over the year.

We held three children’s craft events in the museum garden and used a booking system to ensure that there were not too many people in the museum at any one time. Where possible, we held all events in the garden, including Sarah Acton’s discussion cafes, the Bric-a-Brac sale and the b-side event with Christopher Lee.

The museum is grateful to Gerry Hinde, the owner of Rufus Castle, who kindly gave permission for the museum to take three groups of visitors for a tour around the inside of the ruins of the castle. These trips were very popular and thoroughly enjoyed by those people who participated.

Portland Museum continues to be part of Weymouth and Portland Heritage Group and participated in the national annual Heritage Open Day again. We are very grateful to one of our volunteers, Vicky Marshall, for the loan of a fascinating family heirloom ‘ Marshall’s Televisor’ a mechanical television built by her father and uncle on Portland.

A new craft activity was started in 2022 – ‘Paint your own Fossils’. This was organised by Chloe Taylor at weekends in November and December.

8. Income

The annual income for Portland Museum comes from a combination of small grants (not allocated to specific projects), donations, entrance fees and retail.

Income in 2022:

9. Admissions

Adults: 3,349 Children : 1,212 of which 11% were Portlanders

This figure is an underestimate of the total number of visitors as the entry recording system was new to many volunteers and occasionally, groups of visitors were recorded as I visitor only.

9

The breakdown of these numbers shows that 66% of visitors to the museum were adults and 33% were children, for both Portlanders and non-Portlanders.

11. Friends of Portland Museum

Portland Museum is very grateful to the Friends who have made a valuable contribution over many years. The members who have been running the Friends and said that they wish to stand down now and hand on the role to new people. The Friends and the museum would especially like to thank Pam Boyce as well as Jan and Les Sullivan for all their hard work over many years.

It is now time for the Friends to be taken forward by some new people in 2023
