National Football Museum

Since Manchester is home to two of the country’s biggest football teams, it’s no surprise that the National Football Museum resides here. The museum was established and made available to the public in 2001, originally at Preston North End’s ground, and houses an extensive range of footballrelated artifacts and documents, known as the Football Heritage Collection in its current Medieval Quarter location.

There are over 40,000 items housed in the museum’s Resource Centre and around 2,500 are on display at the museum at any one time. The location is also home to a robust programme of exhibitions throughout the year, exploring cultural and creative themes that truly represent the role of football in society and our lives.

This lesser-known museum sits in the heart of Bury and recounts the history of the XX Lancashire Fusiliers (LF) and the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers (RFF).

The LF gallery tells the story of the 20th Regiment of Foot and the Lancashire Fusiliers from 1688 to 1968, when they then became part of The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. The RRF gallery continues the story for the regiment right up to the present day with a closer look at

A dementia diagnosis is something many families fear as they see their loved ones get older. There are a whole host of symptoms, including memory loss, mood changes, and problems with reasoning and communication. The most common diagnosis is Alzheimer’s disease, but there are over a hundred conditions classed as dementia, such as dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson’s dementia. While a diagnosis might be expected, it can be difficult knowing who to turn to for support.
