The Kent Battle of Britain Museum Trust (www.kbobm.org) at Hawkinge has been back open for just over a week and the great news is that we are 125% up on visitors from the same period last year! Please also bear in mind that 2023 was our busiest year in the 59 years since the Museum was founded back in 1965.
As a voluntary run organisation every penny we can raise helps us to maintain, grow and expand the collection. We should be acquiring additional land within a couple of years, so the more visitors we can attract, not only do we educate them about ‘The Few’ and the summer of 1940, but helps up build a cash reserve so when the land is donated to the Charitable Trust, we will have finances in place to erect additional buildings and hangars.
So please come and visit the largest and most comprehensive collection of Battle of Britain exhibits on display anywhere in the world.
The Museum, Museum Shop, and our lovely No. 25 Squadron Mess and Tea Rooms are open Tuesdays to Sundays through until 10th November 2024. Closed on Mondays except on Bank Holidays. In April we are open 10am to 4pm, with last entry one hour before closing.
For everything you need to know about the Museum please have a look at and browse through our excellent and informative website: www.kbobm.org
Please keep ‘liking’, ‘sharing’, and ‘commenting’ which helps us spread the work of the volunteers and promotes the Museum to all your family and friends. It is truly appreciated by us all.
Many Thanks as always…
