Fears for Charnwood Museum in Loughborough

16:01 Jan 27 2015 Loughborough, Leicestershire, East Midlands, England, United Kingdom

Description
FEARS have been raised that Charnwood Museum may have to be run by the community or face closure as part of money-saving plans by the county council.

The museum in Granby Street is jointly funded by the county and borough councils.

The concerns have been aired by the Charnwood Borough Council’s opposition Labour leader Coun Robert Sharp, following a county council meeting this week.

The agenda item states the county could look to build “community partnerships” for the running of community museums in Charnwood, Melton, Harborough and Donington Le Heath.
