HERE’S a silver lining to some Covid-19 clouds. The Holburne Museum in Bath will survive as a result of a cash injection from a successful crowdfunding campaign and it has cautiously reopened its doors to the public with the critically acclaimed exhibition Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years.

The space has been redesigned to allow for two-metres social distancing throughout and a safe new one-way system is in operation.
