Livesey Museum for Children

The Livesey Museum for children closed 
on Friday February 29 2008.

Councillor Nick Stanton, leader of Southwark Council said:

'We're very sad that we have been forced to close the Livesey Museum. The decision to close the museum was taken because the council has been forced to make savings because its funding has been cut by the government. This was a very difficult decision to make.'
