Our historic blacksmith shop is open on the weekends and we need guides to communicate with visitors, giving history and stories of the venue whilst the blacksmiths are working. When it is possible the guides will take visitors on a short 5-10 minute tour of the Forge. We are open weekends between Labour weekend and Queens birthday weekend 10-3pm

Volunteer South's office is closed from Friday 20th December until Monday January 6th. Many organisations listing roles online will also be taking a break. During this time your requests to connect will go through, however there may be some delay in you hearing from the organisations you select. Please be patient and if you have not heard back from them by mid January email them directly and give them a nudge. Thank you and have a wonderful holiday season and summer.
