Ripon Museums Trust is entering an exciting new chapter—and we’re looking for new Trustees and a Treasurer to help shape our future.
Thanks to a £2.5 million grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund and additional match funding, we’re delivering a transformative £3.3 million project—Inspiration for a Fairer Future—to reimagine our museums, engage more diverse audiences, and protect Ripon’s remarkable heritage.Our three museums—Ripon Workhouse Museum & Garden, Ripon Prison & Police Museum, and Ripon Courthouse Museum—tell powerful stories of justice, welfare and social change. We are seeking individuals who share our passion for heritage, education and social justice, and who bring fresh ideas and relevant experience.
Closing date for Trustees and Treasurer vacancies is
5pm on Tuesday 30th September 2025
