Discover
Help tell the stories of lives changed by war and conflict.
As a Discover volunteer you will be the warm and welcoming face of the museum helping visitors feel special and valued. You will be able to make recommendations based on their personal interests and provide information to make sure that they get the very most out of their visit.
Discover volunteers are confident using their initiative, intuition and are proud of being an IWM ambassador. As well as helping visitors explore our exhibits and activities volunteers also welcome school groups and help to point out key facilities, address access needs and highlight our ‘Hidden Gems’. We are looking for volunteers who are friendly, engaging and passionate about the IWM and its charitable message.
About IWM
Established at the end of the First World War, and famous for its role in the Battle of Britain, IWM Duxford is renowned as one of the world's leading aviation museums, housing an extraordinary collection of historic aircraft and artefacts within many original wartime buildings.
See IWM Duxford as it was during the Battle of Britain. Visit the reconstructed Watch Office, explore the vital role played by the historic Operations Block which highlights the personal stories of the men and women who worked there and explore the Historic Duxford exhibition
As an American fighter base from 1943, IWM Duxford is now home to the newly transformed American Air Museum housing the giant B-52 Stratofortress. At the far end of the site; artillery pieces, tanks, trunks and other historic military vehicles tell the story of the mechanisation of combat in the Land Warfare exhibition.
Today the legacy of the site’s history is assured by IWM (Imperial War Museums) and we look after it for all to enjoy.
Since its first beginnings as a museum back in 1975-76 volunteers have made an enormous contribution to the development and operation of IWM Duxford. Connect with your past at Duxford and help us shape our future - become an IWM Volunteer!
