Get Involved
We offer volunteering opportunities to excite, challenge and intrigue. Meaningful co-production opportunities are at the heart of all we do and by working alongside our brilliant team of Volunteer Co-producers, we create inspiring museums built with, and for, the people of Derby.
From regular, longer-term volunteering opportunities to micro-challenges that could take just minutes of your time: every minute you give makes a difference.
