HASLEMERE Museum is “immensely grateful” to three local businesses who have generously donated much-needed garden tools to the museum.

The museum’s 15,000 square metres of grounds are maintained by a team of volunteers.

Haslemere Garden Centre has donated shears and loppers; Jewsons have donated a wheelbarrow, mattock and sledge hammer; and Richmonds Groundcare have donated a leaf blower, hedge cutter and chainsaw to maintain this green space.

Museum chairman, Melanie Odell said: “This will make all the difference to the dedicated volunteers who maintain our grounds and we are extremely grateful for the generous support of these local companies.”
