West Somerset Railway Heritage Trust WSRHT

New Trustees Are Welcomed!

As part of its ongoing process to strengthen the Board and to continue with its programme of succession planning, the Trust is seeking expressions of interest from individuals who have a love of and commitment to, railway heritage and who would be interested in working in a small charity. The Board has three main objectives around museums management, heritage carriage restoration and learning and education. We have a full programme of interesting work, which although interrupted by the Coronavirus pandemic, is still being taken forward in the background whilst we wait for the WSR to reopen.

If you feel that you have something to offer and would like to be part of a well formed team, then do please contact Chris Austin, Chairman at austinca2@googlemail.com or ring him on 07913-653594.
