DO YOU:
Love a bit of history?
Enjoy chatting to people?
Happy to work with children and families?
Keen on the WSR and its heritage?
If you’ve nodded “yes” to any of the above, we’d love you to join us as a museum volunteer.
We’re looking for volunteer stewards for the Gauge Museum at Blue Anchor Station on running days during the school holidays and for special events.
You’ll have an induction period alongside a mentor, and we’re very happy to arrange part-day shifts.
The role is simple: welcome visitors, share a little about the museum, and work alongside the station staff.
Interested (or just curious)? Please email Ian Camp (Curator) via info@wsrht.co.uk and put “Blue Anchor stewarding” in the subject line.
We’re on the lookout for more friendly faces to join our team, especially as the museum is getting bigger and busier these days!
If Bishops Lydeard sounds like your kind of place, just drop us a line using the same email, but pop “Bishops Lydeard stewarding” in the subject so we know what you’re after!
And don’t forget – you can always support the WSRHT by becoming a member. Just ping us at info@wsrht.co.uk and pop “membership” in the subject line.
Keep up with what we’re doing, follow the Trust on Facebook!
