The museum relies on volunteers as it has limited staff, and so we need help to keep us open and things running smoothly.

  • Front of House Volunteers –  Tuesdays, Wednesdays,  Saturdays and Bank Holidays 

If you are friendly and confident in meeting new people, then this is an ideal role for you. We need some new people to join the team to cover Front of House, assisting the staff.  This role involves chatting to visitors, helping to open and close the museum, assisting with enquiries, selling items from the museum shop via contactless payments or cash, and generally ensuring that all our visitors have a great experience.  You do not need to have a vast knowledge of the regimental history as information sheets and training are provided.

  • Memorial Garden Volunteers

We currently have some very hard-working volunteers who keep the lawn mowed and the rose beds tidy and weeded. We would love to have some more green-fingered people on the team to help them. If you would like to garden but do not have your own space, then come along and help in ours.

  • Collections Volunteers –  Thursdays

We have vacancies to assist with collections work. This could be checking, repackaging and labelling items in the collection, checking and updating catalogue entries, and other related tasks.

 

If you are interested in any of these projects, please email us at museum@royalhampshireregiment.org

 

Work Experience and University Placements – 2026

We can offer placements to university students who wish to come in for a regular slot each week. We currently have the vacancies listed above available to students. As the museum is small, we can only take 1 student at a time.

Please email us at museum@royalhampshireregiment.org to inquire.
