Volunteering

© Andy Brown

Our volunteers are fantastic. Whether they are engaging families at Weston Park Museum, supporting our events team, or in helping out behind-the-scenes, every hour they spend with us makes a massive difference to our sites and our visitors.

Volunteering with us can also be rewarding and can enhance skills, knowledge and confidence.

If you would like to join our volunteer team, please visit this page in early January when new volunteer opportunities will be available.

Our volunteering opportunities are open to people aged 16 or over. We are currently unable to accommodate work experience or internship requests.
