The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has been liaising with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport to consider appropriate support for the National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN) during the COVID-19 pandemic and to assist with its recovery once visitors are able to return.

The MOD has provided the NMRN with an advance of Grant in Aid as immediate assistance and is working with the museum to explore additional emergency funding options.
