The Centre for Computing History brings the story of the digital age to life. Home to more than 40,000 objects, we're not a museum where exhibits sit behind glass – visitors can explore, interact with, and experience the technology that changed the world.
Based in Cambridge, our work connects technology, culture, education, and public engagement. We inspire thousands of school pupils each year, preserve computing history for future generations, and welcome everyone - from intergenerational families to the engineers who built the machines we display.
Rated 4.8★ on Google and recognised with multiple TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards, we're proud to be one of the UK's most distinctive museums.
We're now looking for people to help shape our amazing museum
- Become a trustee
- Join a strategic working group looking at learning, collections, museum development or public engagement
- Volunteer in one of our teams
As a small independent charity, every trustee, working group member and volunteer makes a genuine difference. With a new Museum Director in post and strong foundations in place, we’re looking for people who want to help us move forward - we have big ambitions!
Whether you have professional expertise, specialist knowledge or simply enthusiasm and time to give, we'd love to hear from you. We particularly welcome applications from people whose backgrounds and perspectives are under-represented in museum and heritage governance.
This is not only an opportunity to support a unique cultural institution, but also to meet new people, develop skills, broaden professional contacts and enjoy the wellbeing benefits associated with volunteering and community involvement.
