Museum bosses are thrilled after Jersey Museum secured a top national Gold accolade at the VisitEngland Visitor Attraction Accolades for the second consecutive year. This achievement places the museum among an elite group of only 21 attractions to receive such recognition.
Director of Curation and Experience at Jersey Heritage, Louise Downie, expressed immense joy, stating the gold award validates the continuous improvements made at the museum. She highlighted key exhibitions, including "La Tèrr'rie d'Jèrri" and the interactive "Playing with Light," as contributing factors to this success.
Furthermore, Hamptonne Country Life Museum was honored with a Welcome Accolade, celebrating its efforts to make visitors feel valued. All six Jersey Heritage sites, including the Maritime Museum, La Hougue Bie, Mont Orgueil, and Elizabeth Castle, received high assessment scores and attained VisitEngland's Quality Rose Marque after recent inspections.
Downie praised the dedication of her staff across all sites, emphasizing their hard work in maintaining high standards and delivering exceptional visitor experiences. Although VisitEngland primarily assesses businesses in England, Jersey Heritage has consistently participated in the quality assessment scheme, adhering to the same rigorous standards.
