The installation of purpose built storage and display units will reflect and enhance the heritage value of the building. Members of the group will have much improved access to the collections and public visitations will increase due to the ability of the History Group to hold events that encourage public interest and local involvement.
The History Group has amassed a valuable collection of readable material, a significant photographic library of town development and an extensive number of personal documents. The community has been denied access due to lack of space and the need to preserve valuable materials away from public areas. New shelving and display units will mean materials are readily available for research and local families will have access to genealogy studies.

Important to have the collection displayed safely and easy to access. The group has done an amazing job of cataloguing, researching and saving so much already, and needs somewhere to present it. June C.
Great idea for a project. Display facilities are badly needed.
This building is an important part of Merediths History

Very valuable to the current and future residents and visitors to Meredith with such a rich history. The centre keeps the history alive and enables the information to be passed on generation to generation without the volunteers and centre the history will be lost.
