Ambassador Volunteer (Museum Assistants and Tour Guides-National Waterways Museum Gloucester)

We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to support our wonderful museum in the heart of Gloucester Docks.

Housed in the heart of Gloucester Docks, the National Waterways Museum takes visitors on a journey through the 200-year history of the docks and accompanying Gloucester & Sharpness Canal.

Volunteers are right at the heart of what we do in the museum and help us keep the history of the Docks and Gloucester & Sharpness Canal alive.

We are looking for volunteers to help in various aspects of the museum experience, whether that be providing historical introductions to visitors, assisting with the gift shop and admissions, or getting involved behind the scenes to help care for the site and its exhibits.

What skills are we looking for? While an interest in local history and heritage can be a bonus, the most important quality we look for is an eagerness to communicate, collaborate and help others. Our team enjoy working together to make the museum experience the best it can be for our customers!

By volunteering with us, you will be part of a team that cares deeply about keeping our museums and history alive and accessible to all.
