Reasons to join our volunteer team

Volunteering at Attingham offers a great chance to socialise

'Following retirement I missed the buzz of meeting new people, so Attingham was the place for me. As a ‘greeter’ every day is different and each person you meet has a different expectation of their day here. You are able to enhance and broaden their scope of what is on offer to explore and enjoy. Having used it myself I always promote Lady B's afternoon teas.' Geoff, Visitor Welcome Volunteer
