Bekonscot Model Village
Vennersys, a leading provider of visitor management solutions, is delighted to announce a new partnership with Bekonscot Model Village, the world’s oldest original model village. This collaboration will modernise operations and create a seamless visitor experience for the much-loved attraction in Beaconsfield.
Since 1929, Bekonscot Model Village has welcomed over 15 million visitors, captivating them with its intricate models, extensive railway, and charming 1930s aesthetic. Operated by The Roland Callingham Foundation Charity, the 1.5-acre site supports numerous local and national causes, having donated over £16 million to date.
With annual visitor numbers exceeding 150,000, the need for a modernised system became evident. The previous infrastructure was struggling to manage admissions, membership processes, and event coordination efficiently. Seeking an innovative and reliable solution that respects the attraction’s historic charm while addressing operational needs, Bekonscot turned to Vennersys.
Vennersys, with over 30 years of experience in the heritage sector, was the ideal partner to provide a tailored visitor management solution. Our powerful VenposCloud platform will streamline operations by offering features such as online ticketing, automated membership renewals, enhanced CRM for targeted marketing, modern payment systems, and comprehensive reporting tools for retail and café management.
The adaptability and user-friendly interface of VenposCloud ensure seamless integration across admissions, memberships, and event management. Set to go live in February, the new system will significantly enhance operational efficiency while elevating the overall visitor experience at Bekonscot Model Village.
Stuart Ward, Business Development Manager at Vennersys, commented:
“Working with Bekonscot Model Village has been a rewarding experience. We are proud to support such an iconic attraction in its mission to preserve history and create unforgettable experiences for its visitors.”
Brian Newman Smith, Managing Director at Bekonscot Model Village, added:
