Job Purpose: To lead on the project management of the Delivery Phase of the NLHF Synergy Project to completion and sign off by National Lottery Heritage Fund.

Background: Catalyst Science Discovery Centre and Museum is undertaking an exciting new project. In 2022, the National Lottery Heritage Fund awarded Catalyst the funding for the Development Stage of the Synergy Project which aims to make our heritage accessible to new and underrepresented audiences in an entertaining and meaningful way. The project will physically redevelop the heritage galleries and transition spaces, as well as implement a heritage education offer to complement our already successful STEM programme.
During the Development Phase, Co-creation consultants worked directly with our target audiences within the local community to ensure that the interpretation and activities of the Synergy project are codesigned and co-created. The themes for the heritage galleries recommended by the Co-creation Consultants are:
1. Our Place
2. Our Lives/People
3. Your Chemicals
Our target audiences were also consulted on display and accessibility requirements.
In September 2024, Catalyst was awarded the funding for the Delivery Phase of the Synergy Project which will see the physical implementation of the new heritage galleries and heritage offer.
