More brilliant work from our @MassObsArchive Engagement Manager Suzanne...
Here are some of the amazing sensory boxes created by Suzanne for her outreach work at HMP Lewes (the taste box contained creme eggs, but they were eaten before a picture could be taken!) Some of the writing from this session was shared at Tuesday’s Penned Up event #archives

25 Oct is the deadline to fill in the consultation about proposed changes to our opening hours. New plans would see us open a little later and close a little earlier. Have your say online: ow.ly/oQci50BwnlM
