WSRHT Remembrance 2023: We need YOUR help?

Remembrance Day 2023: The Trust needs your help?

The West Somerset Railway Heritage Trust is holding a Service of Remembrance on Sat, 11th November 2023. We would reach out to the community and find relatives of any GWR employees who worked on the West Somerset Railway (Taunton to Minehead Branch) and who gave their lives to fight for our country.

Can you help us find them? If you can support us – please email us at info@wsrht.co.uk with the subject as “Remembrance 2023“. Alternatively, write to us at WSRHT, The Railway Station, Bishops Lydeard, Somerset TA4 3BX.

Due to space restrictions, this will be a “By Invitation ONLY” event.

Join us as a Museum Volunteer.

WEST SOMERSET RAILWAY HERITAGE TRUST

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.

Gauge Museum at Blue Anchor

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.

Fancy getting involved over at Bishops Lydeard?

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!
