Acted as assistant to the project curator on an NLHF project involving the redevelopment of three permanent galleries covering everything from social history and industry to natural history. I undertook collections and documentation work deinstalling the old galleries, returning objects to the store, while also preparing objects selected for the new galleries. Throughout the project I was responsible for liasing with conservators and external contractors regarding collections. I also acted as curatorial assistant and contributed research for text labels.

Working in collaboration with community engagement staff, I provided advice and assistance on designing the Giant’s sash community project. I was also responsible for textile mountmaking in the social history galleries.
