As part of the on-going development of this blog, I wanted to let you know that a new page has been added to the Work Experience and Volunteering section of the blog. If you are considering a career in the museums and heritage sector, or if you are just interested in volunteering in a museum or with a local history group, there is now advice on the blog on how and where to seek out those opportunities.

Any volunteering opportunities the School is asked to advertise will, of course, be posted on this blog as soon as they come in. However, especially in this sector, it pays to be proactive, and seek out volunteering opportunities for yourself.
