Updates on the Conversion of the Civic Offices and Gharial

Keeping people informed about the reopening of Swindon Museum and Art Gallery on the first floor of the Civic Offices can be repetitive and progress seems slow, I need a photo of the Civic Offices, but can't find it, so will use a favourite photo of mine, taken when the Friends visited Rabley Gallery last summer and were warmly greeted by Meryl Ainslie, director of the gallery. 

Last week, on 23 March, the following responses were given in a document entitled 'Standing Order 15 Questions and Responses' the first response is about progress on the Civic Offices and if you scroll further, you can find an update on the gharial:

The next link takes you to an advertisement for contractors to submit expressions of interest in converting the first floor of the Civic Offices, work to be finished by mid September.
