Get Involved

Donate

Your donation, however large or small, is vital to our work.  We love to get our hands dirty in the past and we hold them up to the future generations, encouraging them to roll the history around in their hands too. Your object donations fuel our interactions allowing us to go deeper into the history of mining. Your financial donations allow us to unearth new stories, maintain existing ones and ignite an enthusiasm in mining for generations to come.

Help Us

Join the Team

 We represent the graft. We represent the community. We represent the pride. The laughter lines. The tear streaks. The families. The dignity. These values still ring true to the museum. Whatever your expertise, skills or background, with your help we can keep the history of coal mining alive for everyone to learn about and enjoy. We recruit volunteers all year round and employees as and when a role becomes available.
