- The museum is open in February from 10:00am - 4:00pm
The museum is run entirely by volunteers. Volunteering can be very rewarding, whether you’re at college, just starting out in
your career, looking for something rewarding to do in your spare time or if you’re older or retired.
Rediscover purpose: Whether retired, just starting out or looking for something meaningful, volunteering offers structure, pride, a learning environment and a sense of contribution.
Share your passion: Love aircraft, history, or storytelling? Volunteers get to indulge and share their interests with an engaged audience.
Learn and grow: Gain experience in engineering, conservation, customer service, education or event planning — great for CVs or personal development.
Teach and inspire: Volunteers guide school groups, interpret exhibits, or help with hands-on activities — shaping the next generation’s curiosity.
Boost your confidence: Speaking with visitors, teamwork, and problem-solving are all part of the experience.
Support your local museum: Tangmere is a community treasure. Volunteers keep it vibrant, accessible, and welcoming.
Champion accessibility: Volunteers help ensure all visitors — from toddlers to seniors — feel welcome and included.
Mya was at college doing an aeronautical engineering course and decided to volunteer because she wanted to spend her free time doing something she knew she’d enjoy and developing her skills, working towards a career in aviation.
"I’ve learned a lot that I wouldn’t get through a course such as hands-on skills with tools, caring for the aircraft to ensure they last for the future generations. Tangmere also helped build my confidence, dealing with members of the public and not being afraid to ask questions".
Tangmere has helped Mya decide on her career path and she has applied to join the RAF, hoping to become an avionics technician.
"I’d 100% recommend TMAM to any young person looking for either something fun to do or something to help them with building confidence and their career path."
