Something for everyone
Everyone’s reason for volunteering is unique, from meeting people to learning new skills and making a difference. Our volunteers come from all backgrounds, our youngest volunteers are 11 years old and our oldest has just turned 100 – so age is certainly no barrier to volunteering!
By volunteering you can make a difference to Erddig and the National Trust and also benefit from improved confidence, self-esteem, meet new people, learn new things, working as part of a team, gain valuable experience and perhaps find a new hobby or interest.
Our volunteers make a real difference
With over 350 volunteers, the team at Erddig is a big, friendly group to become a part of. With opportunities in all areas of our work there is something for everyone.
• Help the garden/ ranger teams look after award-winning gardens and the wider parkland.
• Support the house team to open rooms to visitors.
• Welcome visitors and help them find their way around.
• Get stuck in with the ranger team, conserving the estate.
• Support the sports and wellbeing offer, as a walk leader or gardening club
• And many more: shop assistants, admin, tour guides, school guides.
