The Friends of the Norris Museum are a group who provide extra support for our Museum. They help us with fundraising events to support special projects and some members volunteer in various ways. You can still volunteer and not be a Friend!

How to join
It’s easy to be a Friend. You just pay an annual subscription (currently £3.00). Simply print off the form from the link below and send back to us with your cheque. Alternatively, just pop in and see us.

News and Events
As a Friend you’ll receive regular Newsletters to tell you what’s going on. We hold a Friends Barbecue in the Museum garden each summer and a Christmas party in the Museum itself. There is an annual coach trip to a place of interest while our Annual General Meeting each October includes a talk on some aspect of local history or heritage.

Books and cards
The Friends also act as the publishing arm of the Museum. They publish books on local history, with the profits going to support projects at the Museum and every year they print a beautiful Christmas card showing a local scene the ideal way to send seasonal greetings to your friends, customers or clients.

Volunteering
Do you have a few hours to spare, love museums and enjoy meeting and working with people? Then you might be interested in some of our volunteering opportunities.

Call or pop in and see us to discuss what we are currently seeking help with and to fill out a Volunteer Registration Form.

The pictures on this page show you the Friends enjoying themselves on a coach trip and at the summer barbecue, and at one of the Museum’s holiday events for children. The other picture shows you the new building for the 18th century Earith Fire Pump, the result of the Friends’ fundraising.
