“I get a lot of inspiration and real pleasure from my involvement with the museum.”
“I would recommend being a volunteer because it is so much more than the title suggests. You become a part of a larger organisation which in itself pushes you to bigger and better things no matter who you are. It is for everyone and anyone and the rewards are endless.”
