The Faversham Society

Fleur De Lis Museum and Heritage Centre Expansion Appeal. The Faversham Society was formed in 1962 to promote interest in the care and conservation of the Faversham area and in 1977 purchased and opened the Heritage Centre.

After many successful years the Society has the option to purchase a neighbouring property (No. 10/1 – Preston St.) which will give the Centre 75% extra space in a listed building. The front will be used as the Tourist Centre and Bookshop and the rest of the property will be used for various other activities and uses.

The Society has launched an Official Appeal for funds with a target of £330,000 and hope to reach the purchase price of £120,000 by 1997 and the balance by 1999. This sum will be needed for a complete re-fit of both properties. KAS members are invited to contribute towards this excellent cause either in donating money or by helping to raise funds in other ways.
