All National Trust properties rely on the dedication and time of their volunteers. As Munstead Wood gets closer to opening, we will be no different. If you are interested in volunteering with us, please check back on this page for updates about available opportunities.

Facilities Volunteers

Step into the world of Gertrude Jekyll and help bring her legacy to life! Munstead Wood, the historic home and garden of the renowned horticulturist and garden designer, is looking for passionate volunteers to help look after the buildings, carry out small repairs, and keep us running safely and smoothly.

We have 4 vacancies available for Facilities Volunteers, so we may need to use an application process if we receive more applicants than we have space for.

To learn more about what the role entails, and to apply please follow the link below.
