Happy Star Wars Day! May the force be with you. In this latest Crate Escape film we look at artefacts in our Stafford Store that inspired some of the iconic props from the Star Wars series, including Darth Vader's lightsaber.

Our Crate Escape Appeal will help relocate thousands of objects, including those shown in this film, to a new Collections Hub at our Midlands site, making these artefacts will be accessible to the public.

Please help us by sponsoring a box and becoming part of the next chapter of our Midlands site's history
