Memory Boxes

Borrow one of our Memory Boxes to use with a family member, social group or in a care home. Memory Boxes contain a mixture of objects relating to each topic and will soon get the conversation flowing. We have different boxes available to hire from Christchurch Mansion in Ipswich and Hollytrees Museum in Colchester.

The array of boxes on offer is constantly growing and are a mixture of decade specific, such as 1930/40s and 1950/60s, and topical boxes such as Childhood and Holidays.

Boxes cost £5 per week to hire, but we do offer a loyalty card. For every four box hires, your fifth is free. Please ask for a loyalty card when you collect your box.
