Written question WQ84060

Work on this exciting project has continued with the appointment of a football curator and project manager in March and April 2021 respectively and public consultation to shape the content of the museum being undertaken. The Steering Group accepted the recommendation of the Business Plan to focus on maximising use of space within the current Wrexham Museum building. This will require alterations to the building, for current exhibitions to be reorganised and offsite storage found for reserve collections. Haley Sharpe Design and Purcell Architects were appointed in June 2021 to develop detailed design proposals and costs for the project, initially through to RIBA stage 3. An outline business case is due by March 2022.
