Volunteer with us

The Twickenham Museum encourages people from all walks of life to become one of our close-knit team of volunteers.

No previous experience necessary, just a love for talking to visitors and an interest in our rich local history and community.

The museum is currently open Friday and Saturday 11am to 3pm and Saturday between 2 pm and 4pm. Shifts are two hours and we ask each volunteer to commit to work 4 hours per month.

If you are interested in volunteering at our lovely little museum then please complete the form (here) and return it to House Manager Ricky Pound at housemanager@twickenham-museum.org.uk

Ricky will then contact you for a visit to the museum.
