Volunteering

We receive invaluable support from volunteers. The opportunities for volunteering include:

  • front of house staff
  • behind the scenes cataloguing collections
  • administrative projects
  • help with events
  • help with school groups

We recruit volunteers based on the following values:

  • Our work with volunteers will be structured, flexible and friendly.
  • We have a commitment to volunteering and our volunteers. Volunteering is a mutual relationship. We appreciate the gift of time made by volunteers and will do our best to ensure that volunteering with us is a well managed and rewarding experience.
  • We will not replace paid staff with volunteers.
  • We welcome the diversity and range of views and experiences our volunteers bring to the Museum.
  • Volunteering is unique. We recognise the distinctiveness of volunteers, and do not wish to create a contractual relationship with them.

All of our volunteers receive an induction into the work and daily life of the Museum. We want our volunteers to feel welcome and that they are an integral part of the Museum. We have an induction checklist to ensure that volunteers are given all the information they need.
