It's #VolunteersWeek so we want to shout out the volunteers who help keep us running and give you the 5 star experience with each visit!

Behind the scenes a handful of our fabulous volunteers work to keep our collection in order and help discover our history and lost stories!

Eileen, Jim, James, the Steve's, Sharon, Sue, Rowena, Alan, Karen, John, Donna, and Chris all work hard to keep students engaged with our history!

Each school experience is hands on and interactive, making sure that students learn and laugh at the Lock-up!

Three years ago, we set out to take a different approach, to think more carefully about how the Duchy could use its land to create opportunity and support people over the long term, including launching a project here in Cornwall to help tackle homelessness with the right support around it. It’s fantastic to come back at Nansledan and to see that beginning to take shape, and to meet some of the people now calling it home. There’s still more to do, but it’s encouraging to see what’s already possible when you bring together the right people, ideas and ambition. W

We've really enjoyed welcoming young person's groups from across the West Midlands to experience our Fashion Police exhibition!

More than 200 children and group leaders have visited the exhibition so far thanks to the support of @HeritageFundUK and the creative minds of @MyBCU!

Over the past two days in Reggio Emilia, I have seen first hand the power of nature and creativity that put human connection at the centre of a child’s world.

I have had such a deeply moving and unforgettable time here. Thank you to the people of Reggio Emilia for welcoming me into a culture of care with such warmth and generosity.

Our collective work in early childhood must be to protect and nurture the connections that form the foundations of life-long wellbeing.

Grazie di cuore,

Prioritising early childhood and investing in the foundations of a healthier, more connected society.

Today marks the launch of Foundations for Life, a guide developed by @Earlychildhood for everyone working with babies, young children and their families.

Truly wonderful to see conversations with families, researchers and education leaders reflect a shared commitment to embedding the guidance across teaching, training and practice.

We love to hear when people have had a great day with us!

We take pride in fitting as much history as we can in our cells, telling the 125 year story of the Lock-up and those who worked here or were unlucky enough to spend a night!
