Hospitality Volunteers

More than just a Museum, the Gordon Highlanders Museum offers first-rate conference facilities. Do you have the skills or willing the learn to help at conferences?

The Gordon Highlanders Museum is committed to preserving and sharing the legacy of the world famous Gordon Highlanders Regiment for future generations. A Gordon Highlanders Museum Guide brings to life the extraordinary 200 year story of ‘The Finest Regiment in the World’. (Sir Winston Churchill 1900).

A Hospitality Volunteer makes and serves tea and coffee at breaks, helps with food and drink preparation, serving at lunch time and clearing and cleaning of crockery and cutlery.


A fantastic opportunity to help at an award winning Museum. All help is greatly appreciated.
