More Information (DevonAir Radio is not responsible for external websites)

The Whimple History Society's final talk for 2025 is about an appropriate subject to get you in the mood for Christmas - toys! After a successful career in financial services in London, Ian Gregory opened the Sidmouth Toy and Model Museum in 2020 as a retirement project, and established it as a charitable trust. The museum houses the collection of toys and models built up by Ian and Rebecca Gregory over the course of many years, together with some others which are on loan or have been donated. Come along and find out how it happened - we look forward to seeing you there! Non-members welcome.
