Donate
As an independent museum and registered charity (number 326446) we rely entirely on ticket sales, shop sales and donations.
Your donation supports our work, including preserving the collection and archive for the future and inspiring the next generation of furniture makers and designers through our education programme.
We are grateful for any donation you are able to give – you can donate via the button below, or via our JustGiving page. Thank you for your support.
If you shop online with Amazon, Tesco, John Lewis and thousands more you can help via the Easyfundraising website. It is very easy to set up, very easy to use and FREE. For each online purchase you make, the retailer donates a small percentage to the museum. It costs nothing more than shopping directly and you can feel good about making donations to a worthy cause.
