Shop
Our shop offers a range of memorabilia from the museum as well as
great gifts and activity packs that allow you to continue to explore
science even after you’ve left the museum.
Support
There are various ways you can support the museum. Donations are
very welcome and are an important way we keep this museum open and
accessible to the whole community. You can also support us by
donating items of interest to the museum’s collections. If you have
some item or collection that you think others would enjoy, please
let us know by contacting our Collections Department and they will
be able to assist you.
Volunteer
A number of people volunteer their time and effort to keep the
displays in good order and ready for visitors to come and enjoy.
Volunteering has its perks including getting to see behind the
scenes of a working museum, access to staff-only lectures, and a
monthly lunch where all staff and volunteers come together to
discuss ideas for future exhibits and strategies for the museum. You
can help volunteer in a number of different spheres. Please contact
us if you’d like to find out more about how you can get involved.
Internships
Are you interested in working in a museum? Do you enjoy the fun and
excitement of sharing the wonders of nature with people? Well you
could be just the right person to enjoy an internship at the museum.
You’ll be learning from a number of different academics and people
who are passionate about science and sharing it with the wider
community.
