Volunteer
Volunteers are the lifeblood of the museum. Can you volunteer with us?
We are always looking for new volunteers! You can choose when is suitable for you, and how often you would like to come. You will have the opportunity to welcome visitors and tell them about the Museum, or help in the shop or on reception. You can bring a friend if you want to, or work with a member or staff or an experienced volunteer.
There are plenty of opportunities to get involved if you don't want to work with the public, for example gardening, cleaning and collection research.
We are a welcoming, enthusiastic and fun group. So get involved!
This is what some of our volunteers had to say about their experience of volunteering with the museum:
"It's a great way to make friends, learn new skills and improve self confidence"
"Through volunteering with the museum I have met very interesting people. People I wouldn't come across otherwise. In seeing the enthusiasm and passion that some people have got is inspirational"
"The volunteers are a fun and friendly bunch"
"I feel that I have contributed towards my community and enjoyed it because of my interest in history"
We have taken every care to keep all our volunteers, and everyone who visit, safe in these times. You’ll get more information on these measure under the ‘Ready to Go’ article on the What’s on page on our website.
