Volunteering

*** Please note: the applications for new volunteers are currently closed, but we will update this page as soon as we have more information about when appliations can reopen. ***

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.

We currently have work experience placements available this year - find out more and apply here.
