York Castle Museum Trust

We have increased the gallery's display space by 60% by creating a new first-floor gallery in the space above the Main Gallery on the ground floor. We have created an entirely new gallery above the existing South Gallery and expanded. York Castle Museum was founded by Dr John Kirk, a doctor from Pickering, North Yorkshire, and houses his extraordinary collection of social history, reflecting everyday life in the county.

We aim to enable as many visitors as possible to experience all of our sites. Members of our Welcome Teams have received special training including on autism, deaf and hard of hearing, blind and partially-sighted, dementia, and different types of guide dogs. Some team members can also use British Sign Language.

Anthony's collection of ceramic is on display at the gallery where it has been designed to look like a living room in his home. As a volunteer you will welcome people in to the space and be available to answer questions about Anthony and his collection. You will also look after the objects that are on open display to make sure they are safe and secure from accidental damage.

More than a year has passed since the death of George Floyd. We joined many other organisations in making a statement of intent to: challenge and change the way we think as an organisation; to rigorously examine the stories we tell and to give a voice to those which have been dismissed or hidden. This statement was the first step at the beginning of the significant culture change we hope to make.
