Malvern Radar and Technology History Society (MRATHS)

MRATHS were founded in 2010. In March 1942 and in great secrecy, UK Scientists from the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) near Swanage and the Air Defence Research and Development Establishment (ADRDE) were moved to Malvern to escape enemy raids. TRE and its successors remained in Malvern until the Government relinquished the site to QinetiQ in 2001. The Society tell the stories to the public of Malvern’s science heritage and the people behind it through exhibitions, talks and visits to schools. They also collect memories and artefacts which help us understand the origins of world changing inventions.
