As a family, we have a puppet team and perform shows in our local chapel. As we can't perform in the chapel, this year's show is online for free youtube.com/watch?v=6GLvZR… To donate to the church please click here gofundme.com/f/help-raise-f… #haydonbridgepuppets

A huge thanks to everyone who contributed to our crowdfunding campaign to buy the museum. Sadly the campaign did not raise the money needed, however we have found a way through private means to buy it, so the museum is saved!
