This January we're running two Sudbury Behind the Scenes volunteering drop in days. Suitable for all the family come along and see what it takes to get Sudbury ready for Spring opening. Come and help us with some of our jobs, from painting to gardening and we'll show you parts of the Hall that only our staff and volunteers get to see. It's a little taster of the kind of jobs our volunteers do behind the scenes and an opportunity to meet those who are already volunteering here. 

Some of our opportunities

Room guide
Help bring the Hall and Museum to life with your passion for history. We rely on our dedicated volunteers to share the stories of Sudbury in an interesting and enjoyable way to inspire our visitors.
