It has been announced that Leicester City Council have reversed their decision to close the city’s Jewry Wall Museum, Belgrave Hall, Abbey Pumping Station and The Guildhall.
A campaign, mounted by , amongst others, Leicester Civic Society, has also caused the council to rethink its proposal to charge non-city entrants for admission to the museums.
Rescue however remain concerned that such announcements only offer a temporary reprieve for such service, which, with no statutory status, are subject to further threat when the next round of cuts begins.
