Mr Alex Ogilvie The Highland Society of London Hope House Basingstoke Road Ramsdell, Tadley Hampshire, RG26 5RB 04-03-2021 Dear Alex Thank you so much for the cheque representing the 4th trance of the Highland Societies donation – we are very grateful for your continued efforts. The project is at quite an exciting time, although we are still a little short of the total, we have just received confirmation that our major funders will cover most of the overruns due to Covid-19, which will allow us to start building works. We have selected a contractor and the price has come in on budget, which is a huge relief. In the meantime, we have largely moved from the Museum site and are housed in temporary offices. My colleague Aaron Watson and I moved 40,000 artefacts to our temporary collections store just before Christmas, luckily most were very small! You asked about the plaque design – first we should agree the wording and my suggestion is: “The Education Room was funded by a generous donation from the Highland Society of London”. I would like to chat with my colleagues about the term ‘education room’ as many organisations are now using the term ‘learning’ One alternative might be to use the term ‘Learning Space’ – but as with any term we choose, it will one day be regarded as outdated! Your views on what term to use would be most welcome! Regards the design, this is scheduled, along with other signage design to start in July, and we will of course share drafts to ensure you are happy. I have asked the architects to supply some images of what the space will look like, and will send them on as soon as I receive them. Thank you once again and all the very best Dr Sharon Webb MBE BA.
