Regimental and Corps Museum networks
Sharing advice and working in partnership
Regional networks
Regimental and Corps Museum networks serve as forums for museum representatives to share advice relating to the sector and develop collaborative projects. Membership is open to all army museums and collections.
The National Army Museum provides support through an advisory service, bespoke training sessions and by assisting with network projects. For more information, please contact Julian Farrance (jfarrance@nam.ac.uk).
