Michael Sweeney, communications manager at the Maritime Museum, which has been celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, said: “Everyone at the museum is incredibly excited to be hosting this year’s BBC Children in Need in the south west.

“As with last year’s Antiques Roadshow, this is another example of the Maritime Museum bringing the media spotlight to shine on what Falmouth has to offer. And of course BBC Children in Need is such a worthwhile cause that staff and volunteers at the museum are only too happy to get behind it.”
