Become a Trustee of the Cromwell Museum

We are looking for new Trustees between the ages of 18-30 to join the Board of the Cromwell Museum Trust. We believe that including younger Trustees on our board will help us to future proof decision making, bring new, innovative ideas, and reflect the community we serve.

We are seeking individuals who are enthusiastic, ambitious and who can help us deliver our mission. It is an exciting time to join our Board as we are working towards several major projects over the coming years, principally the expansion of the Museum to additional premises.

If you have a passion for the work that we do and have the skills and experience to help us realise our ambitions we would very much welcome your application.
