Support Thames Museum's foyer revamp

Carolyn from Thames

At Thames Museum te Whare Taonga o te Kauaeranga, as we work towards reopening after our most recent lockdown, we have created a Give a Little page as part of our Covid recovery strategy.
givealittle.co.nz......
It isn't the same as having visitors through the door - something all our wonderful volunteers enjoy - but in Delta Level 2 our priority is keeping those volunteers safe. Hopefully Give a Little will help us reach our goal for a refreshed foyer. Please share and thank you for supporting us through these hard times. We're looking forward to welcoming you again soon.

The council is urging residents to report vandalism as soon as possible.
If you witness vandalism in progress, please contact the police immediately.

We want to know: Do you have ideas on how we can better protect our public spaces?
