5. Significant Risks to the Project
Window on Berwick has not had a refurbishment since 1989, so important work does need to be done. Lack of funds would result in only minor improvements being possible. The carpet is an increasing health and safety issue. The lack of sound effects is frequently commented on by visitors. Given funding the only risk to the completion of the project would be major illness of Museum Technician.
