A MUSEUM needs the public's help to document Braintree's colourful history.

Braintree Museum, in Manor Street, is on the lookout for memories, stories and objects relating to times gone by which will be recorded as part of the museum's collection.

A series of memory days are being organised across the year to enjoy a nostalgic look back with the museum at different themes.

The first session will focus on Braintree in the 60s and takes place on April 5 between 2pm and 4pm.

All sessions are free with the price of admission and include refreshments.
