## Description

Stromness Museum, one of Scotland's oldest independent museums established in 1837, is operated by a committed volunteer team from the Orkney Natural History Society. Recognized for its rich collections in natural science, archaeology, maritime history, and social history, the museum emphasizes preserving local heritage and providing an engaging educational experience. As a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO), Stromness Museum prioritizes fair employment practices, including paying a real Living Wage and excluding zero-hours contracts. 

The museum has undertaken significant initiatives to enhance visitor experiences, including a successful Collections Development Project funded by the Orkney LEADER Programme. This project has led to improved accessibility to collections through digital cataloging and new exhibition methods. Additionally, Stromness Museum features a shop and provides local history resources, making it a cultural hub for both residents and tourists. With its focus on innovation and community engagement, the museum continues to foster a deeper appreciation of Orkney's natural and cultural history.
