On this page you can provide both financial and volunteering support.

Three Rivers Museum is an all-volunteer operation. Many small museums have at least one paid staff member, often a museum professional, but we don’t.

Your financial support is vital. Use the link below to make a donation of any size – it will all help, and we’re grateful for it.

We respond to many queries and requests for information. We make no charge, but we ask that you provide a donation to recognise the time involved.

You might even like to consider a legacy in your will. That will no doubt be many years away: but with your help the Museum will be here to use it, and use it well.

Three Rivers Museum is an all-volunteer operation. Many small museums have at least one paid staff member, often a museum professional, but we don’t.

But there’s still all the work to be done that any museum has to do. We have to open the museum, welcome our visitors and answer their many questions, some of which need research.

And we have to run a small company, with all that that involves.

So there’s a lot to do. The Three Rivers Museum is developing fast, and there’s a role for pretty well everyone who can be available at the right times. We need volunteers to

  • prepare material for our new digital platforms, especially our photos

  • act as room stewards and guides.

  • help with our conservation efforts

  • help with our admin

  • help record and arrange our displays and exhibits

  • give talks (in public) about our local history.
