We have some more good news to share - Bletchley Park has received a generous donation of £1m from @Facebook.This vital support will contribute to our ongoing work and help mitigate the financial impact the coronavirus pandemic has had on the Trust. pic.twitter.com/Ysee34JsCP

With the loss of tourists, Bletchley Park was facing the possibility of laying off a third of its workforce, or around 35 employees. Now, on top of the Facebook donation, the trust received £447,000 from the UK’s Culture Recovery Fund, meaning it has made up two thirds of its shortfall in a single day.
