Our Board of Trustees govern the Museum charity, scrutinising and supporting the staff team, to ensure that we consistently serve our charitable purpose and meet our strategic aims. To learn more about the Museum go to https://www.roalddahlmuseum.org/aboutthemuseum/

It’s an exciting time to join the Museum Board:  our Forward Plan 2023-28 will see us transform our site and engage new audiences through our major regeneration project, ‘Unlocking Stories at the Roald Dahl Museum’. Design work is already well underway.

You don’t have to have been a trustee anywhere before to join our Board. If you are thoughtful, constructive, willing to learn at the same time as giving your own insights to our cause, please consider applying. Your personal and professional experience is what matters.
