Working in this industry is always unpredictable, you never know what each day will bring. A special project that we have recently worked on was the recently reconstructed 1950s Aged Miners Homes at Beamish Museum. Two homes are open to the public while another has been converted into a space for those with long-term conditions, who lived through the period. The museum's health and wellbeing team, which will be based at Clover Cottage, runs activities for people living with dementia and other health conditions.
We helped to make things more comfortable for visitors by providing roller blinds for the windows of this fully glazed addition across the back of the two cottages, and pleated blinds for the glazed roof, giving shade and insulation.
We are very proud to be involved in such a worthwhile project that not only educates a younger audience but also helps people living with dementia. It is heartwarming to know that our small contribution will help to make a difference in someone's life.
The Aged Miners Homes are part of the new replica of 1950s homes at Beamish Museum. The aged mineworkers' cottages are based on properties in South Shields.
