THE BRITISH Motor Museum near Gaydon is on track for a top award.
It has been selected as one of three finalists in the museums and collections category of this year’s Royal Automobile Club Historic Awards.
The awards recognise outstanding achievements within the British historic motoring and motorsport world. The judges had a diverse list of candidates across all eight categories to scrutinise and will announce the results at a glittering historic awards dinner and ceremony on November 20 at the Royal Automobile Club in Pall Mall.
The museum was shortlisted for a wealth of initiatives introduced over the past year, including those geared at young people and education. Particularly praiseworthy is its STEM Career Days programme and the new “Brick Bank” which collects unwanted LEGO bricks, incorporates them into packs and redistributes them to local Community Pantries.
Museum spokesperson Stephen Laing said “We are delighted to be shortlisted as a finalist in the museums and collections category. 2025 has been another fantastic year for the museum with the launch of so many successful and innovative initiatives laying the groundwork for exciting developments in the future. It’s very rewarding to have reached the finals which is great recognition of the teams continued hard work.”
