Archives & Collections Volunteer (Collections and conservation volunteer at Gloucester)

Our Collections team is looking for regular volunteers who are interested in all things canal history!

This opportunity is a back-of-house role, supporting our Collections technician and is indoors.

The tasks include audit, inventory, cataloguing, condition checking and object cleaning!

There is in-house training (conservation requirements) and also around 90-minutes of online training prior to starting. The online training can be completed with support by the Volunteering Team Leader.

Our volunteers help maintain and preserve these unique collections many of which are of National importance. The preservation and care by our volunteers will enable future generations to be inspired, learn and be proud of our waterways heritage.
