I am a MA student currently working on my disseration. The topic of my thesis is a volunteer life brigade museum off the coast of England. The museum is suffering because it is a secondary function to the Brigade's main purpose, that is, lifesaving. I am interested in finding information about other organisations, life saving, maritime or otherwise, who share a similar dilemma, that is, that the museum takes the back seat to their primary function. I am particularly interested in volunteer organisations. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
