New exhibition launches at Ballymoney Museum celebrating the legacy of Sherwood Medical
CAUSEWAY Coast and Glens Museum Services is inviting the public to the preview of a brand-new exhibition, ‘The Legacy of Sherwood Medical’, at Ballymoney Museum on Thursday (October 2) at 7.30pm.
The exhibition explores the fascinating story of Sherwood Medical, a company that played a vital role in the local economy and community, employing generations of people in the area.
Through photographs, artefacts, personal stories, and archival materials, the display captures the impact of Sherwood Medical on both the industrial and social life of Ballymoney and beyond.
The launch evening will include refreshments and a chance for visitors to explore the exhibition before it opens to the general public on Friday (October 3). Admission is free, and all are welcome. Exhibition will run until January 3.
As part of the exhibition programme, a special “Sherwood Stories Evening” will take place at Ballymoney Museum on Thursday, October 16. This relaxed and informal event is an opportunity for former employees and their families to come together, share memories, and reminisce about life at Sherwood Medical.
Whether you worked on the production lines, in the offices, or have family connections to the factory, your stories are a valuable part of the area’s shared heritage. Attendees will be able to browse archival material, enjoy light refreshments, and contribute to a growing history collection that honours the Sherwood legacy.
