Mrs Graves-Brown said they have around 80 volunteers.
She said: "Our volunteers deliver a lot of our services, which also helped us get the award."
The award which is set by the Museums Libraries and Archives Accreditation Scheme, determines the standards for UK museums.
"The fact we have achieved the award, and we are up to that standard is brilliant," said Mrs Graves-Brown.
