Volunteering

Volunteering at the Royal Highland Fusiliers Museum is fun!


We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds, skills, ages and abilities – we can usually match everyone with a job that they enjoy.
We have opportunities for:

  • museum work e.g. cataloguing – we are making a complete new digital
  • catalogue
  • archive work
  • research
  • transcription
  • IT & social media – our website needs constant updating!
  • admin assistants
  • shop


    • At the moment, we have:

  • Royal Highland Fusiliers veterans, who:
  • identify people & places in photographs
  • make videos of how to clean/use kit & equipment from their era
  • workshop making things to sell in the shop
  • oral history
  • researchers who answer enquiries from the public about ancestors in the Regiment
  • project Scotland volunteers who gain three month’s work experience with us
  • IT people, who work on our social media & website
  • students (undergrads, graduates & postgrads) – gaining experience for their cvs
  • work placements from schools, colleges & universities
  • heritage volunteers from the Arts Society (Helensburgh & Lomond) – our very own “Silver Surfers”!
  • admin assistants
  • and, recently, we have added Erasmus students to our growing list!

    • If you do not see anything that interests you – we are always open to suggestions!
    So get in touch today and we will arrange for a chat
    We value our volunteers and believe that:

    Volunteers don’t get paid, not because they’re worthless, but because they’re
    priceless!
