@bletchleypark19 Dec 2025
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Ruth Bourne. Ruth served in the Women’s Royal Naval Service (WRNS) during World War Two and worked as a Bombe operator and checker at Eastcote and Stanmore, both outstations of Bletchley Park, from 1943 to 1945. Iain Standen, CEO of Bletchley Park Trust, said: “The Trust was very sad to learn of Ruth’s death. Once the veil of secrecy had been lifted, she was passionate about sharing the story of the work that she and her colleagues had undertaken. For many years, she generously gave her time as a tour guide, helping visitors understand the human stories behind the codebreaking work. She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her, and remembered with immense gratitude and affection.” Ruth’s contribution to the war effort, and to preserving Bletchley Park’s legacy, will never be forgotten.
