What a fantastic evening we had celebrating the 90th birthday of Surrey Heath Museum!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us to mark this special milestone. More than 70 guests raised a glass of bubbles to celebrate nine decades of preserving and sharing our local history, making it a truly memorable occasion.

And, in true birthday party style, nobody went home empty-handed as everyone enjoyed a slice of birthday cake!

Thank you for being part of our story.
