Some of you may have noticed the scaffolding around the Horniman or noticed that we have a couple of galleries closed. We have been working on developing a new World Gallery, celebrating what it means to be human. It will include more than 3,000 objects from around the world, works of art and fun things to touch, play with and even smell.


We want the World Gallery to be a place of inspiration for visitors of all ages, to promote tolerance, respect and empathy. Attached are a couple of artist impressions.


Thank you to anyone who has already supported and shared our crowdfunding appeal. We have got off to a great start but we still really need your help to make this a success!


Please share the link http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/worldgallery with all your friends, family, neighbours and everyone you know who loves the Horniman, and help us reach our target of ?30,000.


Thank you.

Thank you to so many of you who have already pledged and shared the crowdfunder, we?ve been bowled over by your support!


We still need your help to reach our target of ?30,000. Please continue to share the link http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/worldgallery with all your friends, family, neighbours and everyone you know who loves the Horniman, and help us make this campaign a success.


There are now just 7 days remaining for everyone to be a part of our World Gallery crowdfunding campaign. Don?t miss out on rewards ranging from tote bags to tours ? and we have just released two new benefits of a limited edition print and a behind-the-scenes visit to our store. The campaign ends on 7 November.


The World Gallery, opening in June 2018, will celebrate the wonder and complexity of what it means to be human, with 3,000 extraordinary objects from our internationally important Anthropology collection displayed in a transformed gallery space.

    • Hopefully their customer service has improved then, as I've had several bad experiences over the years (despite their good reputation!) including fairly recently with a fridge freezer, which after two visits in person to Oxford Street I ended up buying from AO. Their TrustPilot ratings are interesting (I just looked them up).  I know many  people tend to only post when they've received poor service, but even so .... 27% one star ratings is not good.
    • Many people have artificial trees, some people have real trees in pots which they keep from year to year, and some people don't have a tree at all, so the fact that there are fewer trees on the streets than houses doesn't necessarily mean that "the majority of people dispose of theirs responsibly"! Does the council not publicise their requirements anywhere other than on  their website? I never  have a cut tree, but if I did have, I would assume that the council collected them, particularly seeing other trees on the pavement. So I don't think it's necessarily the case that people are being selfish or unneighbourly, though as with anything, some might be. They just may not know that if they don't have a brown garden waste bin, they have to contact the council to arrange collection.
    • A sharps disposal container has been left outside  our house near goose green.   If you or a friend is missing one PM me for exact address. Presumably a contractor collects a full on and delivers replacements.  Better than a keysafe you didnt order!!
    • I would like to recommend Robert Mills, he came to sort out our central heating last week.  He is punctual, clear about what needs doing and gets on with it very efficiently.  His contact details are 07952 584171.  Thanks for giving us back a warm house Robert!
