Living History Museum
Run by former teacher Robin Wichard the Living History Mobile Museum provides artefacts and presentations to schools, colleges and other organisations as required, on a broad range of topics. The talks are all supported with a wealth of original artefacts each with its own story to tell. The Museum is also involved in the organisation of Heritage Events, most notably the WSR 40s Weekends (including Watchet) and the forthcoming WSR 1960s Diesel Gala. The Museum is represented on the Watchet CCT by Sara Summers.

Onion Collective
Onion Collective is a social enterprise working to support a different kind of economy, one that supports social, environmental and cultural well-being. We ground our work in the everyday values of community: connectedness, curiosity, plurality, compassion and solidarity. We run a number of regeneration projects in Watchet where any profits that are made are reinvested back into the projects or into the community. Our three flagship projects are East Quay Arts and cultural venue, Watchet Visitor Centre and Biomill Watchet, a pilot project exploring fungus-based materials.
