Hi Museums Association people. I've been interested to see the recent news about a downturn in volunteering numbers in the UK and wonder if museums and galleries have been impacted. Going to write a Museums Journal analysis on this, so please do get in touch if you have views, etc

I may not be an Emerging Museum Professional anymore - 10 years+ in the sector - but here I am - Matt UKEMPN Scottish Museums Federation #SMF2023

#SMF2023 Great question - if you can’t answer this question maybe you are in the wrong sector. 🤓❤️

I appreciate Matt Holmes's shout-out of my shout-out to the fab The Neurodiverse Museum when talking about the importance of having & engaging with support networks within the sector. Networks can be hugely important for supporting colleagues, the development of ideas & improving the sector

Do something that inspires you, Matt #SMF2023 UKEMPN

Great to get such amazing feedback for our speakers Niamh Finlay @shahnilashafiq and UKEMPN on Seeing Your Potential as an Emerging Museum Professional 💛👏
