Donating Objects

The majority of the objects in the collection have been obtained through the generosity of individual donors. This has made the Museum what it is today, the most significant collection of RAPTC material in the country.

Many of the most interesting objects in the Museum relate to the personal experiences of those who have served in the Corps.

If you have any objects or photographs, both recent and ancient, that relate to the Corps then the Museum would be very interested in hearing about it.

The Museum collects items relating to the RAPTC (and its predecessors), the military history of Aldershot and Army sport. This might be medals, items of uniform, equipment, photographs or records.

No object is too small or too commonplace to potentially be of interest to the Museum. Even items which today seem of little importance may be of historical value in the future.

As a still-existent Corps, the history of the RAPTC continues to be written. The Museum is keen to portray this on-going role in its displays and asks all serving RATCIs to bear the Museum in mind for potential donations whilst carrying out their duties.

Please contact the Curator for more information about donating objects.
