Balfour Museum of Red Cross HistoryThis moving museum tells the story of the founding and development of the humanitarian Red Cross movement. The museum looks at how the Red Cross grew from its beginnings following the Crimean War, and developed into a world-wide organization. Through personal mementoes donated by Red Cross members and those who have been helped by their efforts, the Balfour Museum traces the history of the movement, with a particular focus on the Hampshire region. A variety of old photographs of the Red Cross in action are displayed, as well as models dressed in historically accurate Red Cross uniforms. CONTACT:
