Achievements and performance This was another very productive year for the Museum, even wlth the situation that we still find ourselves in. In July of 2022 we were granted planning permission for the new Museum and Cultural Centre in the Town Hall, which was a significant step forward. There have been regular meetings of the Project Board, where the Council of the Isles of Scilly have been working alongside the Museum Association wlth the help of various consultants,. several applications have been Submitted to funding bodies, and although we have not been successful in all of them, we remain positive we will be able to obtain the funds required. The Museum on the Move has gone from strength to st￿ngth, with Ali50n Clough tsking a leading role in organising volunteer5 and running the shop. Kate Hale has continued to do excellent work as curatorlmanager, ably assisted by Sarah Garratt and volunteers. In November 2022 we employed Rachael Utting as Collections OffI￿r and she has made a fantastic start cataloguing and assessing our collection. A huge amount of work is being done behind the scenes to ensure the successful resolution to the issue of a new home for the Museum, and the Chair Jess Vian would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to her fellow Trustees, the staff and volunteers of the Museum, and Members and Officers of the Council of the Isles of Sci1Sy, all of whom are working very hard together.
