Volunteer Open Days, Sat 16 & Tue 19 February

Do you fancy meeting & talking to people in the beautiful Lakes valleys of Buttermere and Borrowdale?

We're holding two open days where you can drop in any time between 11am - 3pm to meet friendly staff and volunteers and find out about our new volunteering opportunities.

Meet new people in the great outdoors through volunteering with us

We're launching a new visitor research project this year, to get to know better the visitors who enjoy the countryside we care for, find out what makes them tick, and find out how we can improve their day out in the great outdoors. With no clip-boards in sight, this is a great project for people who want to spend time outdoors in beautiful settings, and who enjoy talking to people and finding out more about their views.

We also have opportunities in our new enlarged shop & visitor information point on Derwent Water, opportunities in our Volunteer Support Team, helping to improve communication among all the small groups of people who volunteer with us from Keswick to Whitehaven. For the less outdoorsy among you, we also have opportunities at Wordsworth House & Garden, in the house, cafe, shop and in the garden.

We hope you'll drop in to see us. To find out more about the opportunities, type your postcode in here to see a list of opportunities near where you live - Find an Opportunity with the National Trust

The dates and venues of the open days are:

• Sat 16 February, Theatre by the Lake, Keswick, 11am-3pm
• Tue 19 February, Wordsworth House & Garden, 11am-3pm
