The committee of Hallaton Museum is delighted to tell you all that at the Heritage Awards for Leicestershire and Rutland 2009 which were this year held at Stapleford Park Hotel, Hallaton Museum won two awards: 'BEST EXHIBITION' and also 'BEST MUSEUM' of the year. These awards are held annually for independent museums throughout Leicestershire and Rutland and are keenly contested. As our museum is not only the smallest by far but is run completely by volunteers and exists pretty much on a financial shoe-string we have a great deal of which to be proud. Of course this is by no means the only time we have won an award in face of stiff competition and we are highly regarded in the wider community. Our thanks go to everyone who supports us. We need as many visitors as possible, so please come along, bring your friends and pass the news on. HALLATON MUSEUM OPENS 2009 EXHIBITION
