Metheringham Airfield Visitor Centre is run entirely by a team of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers - The Friends of Metheringham Airfield (FOMA). If you would like to become involved in preserving the memory of RAF Metheringham and the people that served there then why not become a volunteer? If you can spare a few hours each week or even each month you will contribute to the preservation of this important piece of aviation, military and social history.
The roles of the volunteers are many and varied and include such things as stewarding, aircraft preservation, management and care of museum artefacts, general maintenance, events, education, photo and records digitisation and lots, lots more.
We welcome new volunteers across our full range of roles and activities but currently we are specifically looking for additional stewards. As a steward, you would be the first point of contact for visitors, staffing the shop and providing information to visitors as required when the museum is open. This is a really fun and rewarding role and our knowledgeable and enthusiastic stewards are one of the main reason we receive such positive feedback from visitors. Full training is provided to all new stewards and you would be partnered with a more experienced steward for your initial sessions. If you would like to find out more, please use the contact form here to arrange to meet with the volunteering co-ordinator.
