Charities

The National Museum of Computing, located at Bletchley Park, is an independent charity. It houses the world's largest collection of functional historic computers and World War II machines, including Enigma, Lorenz, the working Turing-Welchman Bombe, the rebuilt Colossus (the world’s first electronic computer), and the WITCH (the world's oldest working digital computer). The Museum enables visitors to follow the development of computing from the ultra-secret pioneering efforts of the 1940s through the large systems and mainframes of the 1950s, 60s and 70s, and the rise of personal computing in the 1980s and beyond. The Museum runs a highly successful Learning Programme for schools and colleges and promotes introductions to computer coding amongst young people, especially females, to inspire the next generation of computer scientists and engineers.

Formed in 1973 the NSPKU exists to help support people, their families and carers, with the rare inherited metabolic disorder, Phenylketonuria (PKU).

The NYBBGB is established to advance education and in particular education in music and to encourage and advance education and training of the gifted and talented young persons in the playing of brass band instruments and to form on a national basis in Great Britain a brass band composed of such persons.
