Members' Panel

Members' Panel: Your chance to join

Discover our Members' Panel; find out who they are, what they get up to and how you can join in.

What is the members' panel?

The Members' Panel is a small but diverse group of adventurous and enthusiastic English Heritage Members – of all ages and backgrounds – who have been recruited to the role of 'English Heritage Members' panellist'.

From exclusive previews to action-packed family activities and events, our Members' Panel make the most of their membership and keeping us informed of their adventures along the way.

What does the Members' Panel do?

Members' panellists review days out at our properties and events across the country, share photos of their visits, and inspire others with stories about how they make the most of English Heritage membership.

They receive extra emails at least quarterly – alongside their regular newsletters – with opportunities to get involved in a range of activities and experiences, whether that's taking part in surveys, or even being in a film or photoshoot.

We ask our Members' panellists to give us their thoughts and feedback on all sorts of things we do, and how we develop our plans for the future. From the products we have in our shops, to what they want to hear about on our podcast, our Members' panellists' views help us to make sure English Heritage membership is as inspiring as possible.
