The Redditch Local History Museum is a registered charity formed to create and run an independent local history museum in Redditch.
It is run entirely by volunteers and relies on public donations, local business sponsorships and grants to fund its operation.
It is located in the centre of Redditch on Church Green and focuses its activities on those areas of local history not included in the scope of the National Needle Museum at Forge Mill.
The Galleries at the museum show a wide range of lostal history topics using both traditional displays and up-to-date electric signage.
