EAST COWES HERITAGE CENTRE
ALL THE WORK AT THE CENTRE IS DONE BY VOLUNTEERS AND INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:
Tracing the histories of people and places.
Linking families with relatives and with the past.
Research into specific and general areas of the history of East Cowes, as demonstrated by the Temporary Exhibitions.
All the Temporary Exhibitions have been carefully filed and are available for visitors to examine. They may not be removed from the Centre but parts can be photocopied for a small charge.
Education - Groups of children and adults attend talks and demonstrations about the work done at the Heritage Centre and the history of East Cowes.
Pamphlets - Members of the Centre research topics of local interest and produce pamphlets for sale at the Centre.
