Supporting our members

Natural History Museum entrance hallNMDC exists to support our members. We provide a shared service, working in a joined up, focused and strategic fashion on Directors’ shared concerns and priorities.

We also support our members by:

Playing an important role in information provision and communications with members, including via the NMDC newsletter, dissemination of key messages briefings, updates from NMDC influencer meetings and the NMDC website.

Coordinating responses to government and sector consultations, highlighting the recommendations and concerns of our members and responding to issues effecting our membership as they arise.

Providing a direct ‘shared service’ support to our members, for instance via the NMDC jobsite.

Producing the monthly NMDC newsletter containing updates on NMDC activity and news from NMDC member institutions as well as news from museums and the wider cultural sector around the UK and internationally, which is circulated widely around the museum sector.
