Co-ordinated by YMCA England & Wales, the travelling exhibition is made possible due to an £86,000 grant received from the National Lottery Heritage Fund as part of YMCA’s 175th anniversary. Thanks to the money raised by National Lottery players, the project will arrive in North Shields on November 18th.
