Are you switched-on to Bakelite? – the “material of a thousand uses”
The Bakelite Design Trust is the charity responsible for the UK’s collection of over 20,000 items, from the functional to the fantastic. It is the story of how society took to the world’s first mouldable plastic and took it home. Established over 40 years, the Bakelite Museum is looking to be ‘remoulded’ with a new future, venue and purpose, sharing the role of plastics through creative education and training, stirring up memories, stories – and fun! Look for the switch!
