A Museum to provide an interactive, educational experience of Firefighting through the ages, with four social objectives:
1) to preserve the history & traditions of the British Fire Service, highlighting major events that brought about evolution & change to make the modern, professional Fire & Rescue Service of today
2) support 999 workers suffering mental illness such as PTSD by support groups & use of revenue to pay for psychological treatment required which isn't readily/quickly available to prevent suicide and loss of career
3) Support young people 14-25 who have severe confidence issues, additional learning needs or mental illness as they transition from education by offering a safe and supportive environment where they can access Apprenticeships, work placements & jobs among the many different tasks in a museum from restoration trades, catering, marketing, administration, conservation & education ( Working partnerships have been made with local authority agencies to identify those who would benefit the most). This will prevent suicide & give young people a chance to develop into a career that may have not been open to them due to their conditions, in an environment where they are understood & supported to thrive at their pace.
4) Combat social isolation through volunteering programmes in the museum from guides, to outreach, to fundraising (working partnerships have been established with local authority agencies to identify those deemed at risk). To hold a 'person library' where those who are lonely can book some time to chat with a volunteer.
