We are now reassessing this legacy through our programmes and creative partnerships.

In July 2024 we completed the first stage of the transformation of some of our famous room sets from the 1870s to the  future. Our new rooms explore everyday domestic experiences and expand representation of migration and gender identity in the UK, alongside stories of style, taste and design. Together with our visitors, we reveal diverse, thought-provoking and personal stories of home through collections, exhibitions, events, performance and debate.

Do you envision a London where every young person can unlock their full potential?

REMIX is a dynamic, brand new youth charity dedicated to creating opportunities for individuals aged 16 to 26 years old. Our core mission is rooted in four pillars—employability, healthy living, personal development, and essential life skills. We're building something truly transformational, and we need a passionate, innovative Volunteer Trustee to help lay our foundations, navigate charity registration, and launch our vision to empower young lives across London and beyond.

As a Trustee with REMIX, you will be a cornerstone of our start-up. Your strategic leadership and guidance will:

• Shape Our Foundations: Be at the helm in crafting the governance and legal framework that will support REMIX’s ambitious goals.

• Drive Change: Help us register as an official charity and develop robust systems that ensure we can deliver impactful programmes to every young person in our community.

• Inspire Growth: Use your experience and insight to cultivate a culture of positivity, resilience, and creativity that motivates young people to dream and achieve.

• Lead by Example: Offer mentorship and share your expertise in employability, healthy living, and personal development, inspiring our team and the young people we serve.

If you are a visionary leader with a passion for making a tangible difference, REMIX offers you a unique and transformative opportunity to drive social impact from the ground up. Your commitment and innovative ideas will help us empower young Londoners to build brighter futures, turning aspirations into reality.

Join us and be the change that sparks new beginnings! Explore the opportunity to leave a legacy of empowerment and transformation within our vibrant community. We can’t wait to see the extraordinary impact you’ll make.
