Support the Mary Rose
During these unprecedented times, we need your support more than ever. The Museum had to close during Covid-19 lockdowns but as 90% of our income comes from visitors this puts the museum at great risk. Even while closed, the unique Tudor collection still needs continued care, and the museum needs to be able to cover the costs associated with this. The Museum receives no core government funding and relies solely on the generosity of the public.
