A MUSEUM has appointed a new member of staff to help generate income.
This month, Kate Le Sueur began work as the new fundraising and sponsorship officer at the Bowes Museum, in Barnard Castle.
Ms Le Sueur, originally from Jersey in the Channel Islands, graduated from Durham University in 2003 and previously worked as an events and community fundraiser for the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability in London.
She said: "This post is a fantastic opportunity to be involved behind-the-scenes at the Bowes.
"The plans for restoration and development are very exciting, and the role will be challenging but rewarding.
"I'm enjoying working with such a great team."
Funds will be raised by applications to charitable trusts and foundations, as well as the launch of a public appeal.
Anyone interested in discussing corporate partnerships or sponsorship opportunities at the Bowes Museum can contact Ms Le Sueur on (01833) 690606.
