And now for the first time, members will continue to hold meetings over the winter months as they plan the 2023 exhibitions.

Ken Robertson, trust chairman, says that members are “fizzing with ideas” and are looking to improve on what the exhibits they currently have on show.

He said: “We're planning a productive off-season to open a bigger, better, more interesting exhibition next year to show the vibrant history of Dysart to all those interested."

The trust will look to build on this year’s successful summer by exploring refurbishment of exhibition areas, and by undertaking more detailed research work on some of the featured items.

There are also plans for a Dysart historical walkabout for members, which could be the basis of walks for interested members of the public in the future.

Earlier this year, there were concerns about the future of the trust, with an urgent call for more support and volunteers to ensure that the trust could continue its nearly 60 years of work preserving the history of Dysart.
