New volunteers are always welcome, and there are various ways in which you can help. You do not need to have any specialised skills, or a detailed knowledge of the all the artefacts on display in the Collection - enthusiasm and some spare time are the most important requirements! Museum stewards and guides, and shop assistants are always required throughout the year, especially during events.

The BAC is a member of the Gift Aid scheme, where the government adds an additional 28% to any donations made by applicable tax payers.
