Our Museum Support Mission

Our Cause
Here at FODI we are keen to share expertise and educate the public both in palaeontology and geology. We do this by assisting Dinosaur Isle Museum where many of our events take place, by helping to develop and display the Museum’s collection we can share a story 125 million years in the making. We also help promote the study of the Isle of Wight palaeontological collections.
As a charity we are dependant on our members and sponsors to fund our activity to preserve and grow our globally important dinosaur museum. To help ensure its world-class research, education and exhibits continue to inspire future generations, you can join FODI or donate here.​​​
