Volunteer - Visitor Services

We are looking for people excited about Auchindrain and telling it's story to new generations. If you have a passion for Scottish social and cultural history we have a role for you!

If you have around a day per week, we would love to have you join us. You may be based in our visitor centre or in one of the historic buildings on site telling the tale of the prohibition of gaelic names, or the impact of scarlet fever on the inhabitants. Either way your role is an important one in welcoming our visitors and sharing our tales. 

Full training and support will be provided


 


Experience required
