Funding secures museum’s future

A CASH injection of £1m is to be used to help secure the future of Bradford’s National Media Museum.

Bradford Council has agreed to use taxpayers’ money for the funding boost, which will be received over the next three years, matched by a further £1m from parent company Science Museum Group (SMG).

A major public campaign saved the museum last year but the council said it was clear that changes needed to be made to sustain its future.

Museum director Jo Quinton Tulloch said the investments marked a “significant milestone in the strategic ambitions of the museum.”
