Becconsall Living Museum & Heritage Park is looking for volunteers who want to get involved in exciting building and site development projects. This role is ideal for practical people who enjoy hands-on work and want to help shape the future of the park.

• Supporting the team to keep projects progressing safely and efficiently.

Tasks can be matched to your confidence, experience and physical ability, and you’ll always have support nearby.
