Volunteer with Young Archaeologists' Club
Our Young Archaeologists' Club (YAC) has a network of branches around the country, run by teams of volunteers. We are always looking for new adults to get involved as branch leaders, assistants, and helpers.
YAC branches offer their members a variety of different activities that you might find yourself organising and running. For example, you could help young people:
- Discover how archaeologists excavate
- Try their hand at historic crafts
- Visit archaeological or heritage sites
- Taste foods from different time periods
- Take part in a real live dig!
Help is also needed to run the branch and look after its membership administration.
Volunteering with the YAC will also provide lots of opportunities to help enhance your CV through training opportunities offered by the CBA and through the experience you will gain by running a club. It's also a lot of fun and our YAC groups often get special access to exciting archaeological digs and behind the scenes tours of museums!
You can find out where your nearest club is by using the interactive map over on the YAC website. To learn more about volunteering with a branch visit the FAQs section of the site or get in touch with the YAC team.
