Support GTM

Your business can play a key role in protecting, preserving and celebrating the fascinating history of transport. 

We welcome interest from corporate and business supporters and can offer a range of opportunities for sponsorships, event partnerships and educational programmes that your business can put their name and support to. 

Grampian Transport Museum has been welcoming visitors for 40+ years, and your support can help us achieve even more — with hands-on learning and ‘active heritage’ important cornerstones of the future of GTM.

Actively support the future of Grampian Transport Museum by leaving us a legacy. 

All legacies, large or small, are accepted and make a very significant contribution. 

Legacies received are carefully used to directly support the continuation of our work and are never used on general running costs for the museum.

There are several ways that you can do this:

• Make a simple financial donation to the Grampian Transport Museum. This way, we can use your donation where it is most needed at the time.
   
• Leave a gift in your will for a specific area of our work. Perhaps you have a favourite vehicle which is in need of restoration, or an ongoing project that you want to help us complete? Your gift will have a real, lasting impact.
   
• Gift an interesting transport-related item or even a vehicle of historic importance to Grampian Transport Museum. We always welcome enquiries from those with a piece of history to share and preserve.

Put your name on a piece of history or give a unique gift to someone special by adopting a vehicle at Grampian Transport Museum.

Grampian Transport Museum cares for a collection spanning more than 100 years of transport and motoring history, and we do this on an independent basis as a self-funding charity. Many of our vehicles remain in working order and play an active role in our exhibitions and events, while others require highly specialist conservation work to keep them operational and protect them for the future.

By adopting a vehicle — either for yourself or a loved one — you are directly supporting the care and preservation of our collection and helping to safeguard the work of the museum for generations to come.

Your Vehicle Adoption at Grampian Transport Museum Includes:

• A complimentary museum admission ticket to visit your chosen vehicle (Members may gift this ticket to a friend)
   
• A digital certificate recognising your adoption
   
• Your name displayed on the object label when the vehicle is on show, and on our online collections page
   
• Museum newsletters with updates on the collection and museum activities
   

Please note: Not all vehicles are currently available for adoption, but additional options will be added soon.

T&Cs apply — visit the Adopt a Vehicle page for details and to browse available vehicles.

Whether it’s monthly direct debit support or a simple one-off gift, visitor donations to Grampian Transport Museum are hugely appreciated and highly impactful.

Your gift enables us to deliver the high standards of collections care we maintain across our collections, while helping us expand the scope of what we do as a museum with education programmes, heritage skills development, community events and more. 

No matter the amount, your donation doesn’t go unnoticed or unutilised — it actively contributes to a bright future for GTM.
