THE partnership between the Royal Air Force Museum and the Pembroke Dock Heritage Trust is set to continue.

The two organisations will continue the partnership and develop the interests of both parties through collaborative programmes focused on the Short Sunderland flying boat which was originally located at Pembroke more than 50 years ago.

A new memorandum of understanding was recently signed between both organisations.

Museum CEO Maggie Appleton MBE said: “We are delighted to continue our partnership – and friendship – with the Pembroke Dock heritage Trust. As a national museum, we are committed to inspiring people with the RAF story right across the UK. This relationship supports that aim and underlines our joint commitment to share our expertise and experience with each other.”
