Description
Fancy Joining Us as a Volunteer? Our volunteers are quite simply our lifeblood. Without our army of enthusiastic helpers, we certainly would not be able to maintain the site & our visitors would miss their valuable contribution bringing the visit to life.
In the current age, our hectic lives often mean it is difficult to commit time to a project like ours. We understand that completely – we have the same problem! However, any time that you can spare will help – even if it is only a couple of hours a month, or even one weekend a year. Every little bit helps.
Why Volunteer?
There are so many different reasons to volunteer & everyone has their own reasons. However, here are some of the main benefits:
Learning new skills
Good for your CV
Making new friends
Knowing you are making a unique contribution to our work.
How Can I Help?
Gardening: Hooton Park is a large site &, with the British weather, it needs constant upkeep. If you fancy spending some time helping us keep the grounds tidy, then please get in touch.
Painting: True to the old Armed Forces adage, “if it doesn’t move, paint it!” We have lots & LOTS of walls, as you can see from the various photographs on this site. If you like the idea of popping in for a couple of hours on a nice day & giving us a hand, you will be more than welcome.
General Maintenance: As you can imagine, with a site this size, there is always something that needs doing – from oiling squeaky hinges to repairing fences.
In return for volunteering, you will be supplied with all the training & equipment you need and, most importantly, endless cups of tea (other beverages are available!)
More importantly, you will be helping to preserve our heritage & leave a real heritage for future generations.
