Hello from the collaborators!

Hi everyone! We can't wait to welcome our new team members, and in the meantime, we'd love to introduce our wonderful collaborators, who have prepared a few words about themselves.

Hannah:
''Hannah-Lee Chalk is Curator of Learning and has worked in the museum sector for 20 years in various roles including education, research, exhibition development, and as a curator. She originally studied Geology before undertaking a MA in Museum Studies and then a PhD in Social Anthropology. She has worked at Manchester Museum for many years, originally as a member of the Visitor Team and subsequently in a range of educational and project management roles before taking on her current role in 2016.

As Curator of Learning, Hannah oversees and supports the development and delivery of the learning programmes and is currently also involved in the development of the Wild exhibition. She is particularly interested in how the collections can be used to explore the intersection between social and ecological justice through programmes such as Carbon Ruins and the forthcoming Blazing World Escape Room.''

Wendy:
''Wendy Gallagher is Head of Civic Engagement and Education at Manchester Museum, part of the University of Manchester. She is an arts and heritage and education professional with over 25 years’ experience working across education, arts, health, culture, and heritage sectors. Wendy leads strategic initiatives in civic engagement, partnerships, and education. Coproduction, accessibility and inclusion is at the heart of our programming, exhibition making and redesign of our spaces. We want visitors to feel that they belong in Manchester Museum.''
