Masterplan

1.1 Our mission is as follows: 'The Horniman connects us all with global cultures and the natural environment, encouraging us to shape a positive future for the world we all share'.

The Master Plan will help us deliver this mission by: • Reviewing the site as a whole, to identify how we can make better and more efficient use of it to deliver both income generating activities and free public amenities • Addressing congestion issues relating to the entrance area to improve the visitor experience and self-generating income opportunities • Prioritising the visitor journey and experience, making it more accessible and legible for all • Supporting the development of options for the long term future of our Study Collections Centre We anticipate that this exercise will result in a Master Plan of a series of discreet phased capital projects that could be delivered over a period of 10+ years.

At a recent Away Day, trustees discussed the different elements of a ten year Master Plan, and took the decision to appoint a consultancy to assist them in the Master-Planning exercise.
