Volunteer community heritage officers
Do you enjoy helping people learn and discover new things? Could you help
tell the story of an historic ‘Handel’ organ to groups of children, families and
adults in Gosport?
Holy Trinity Church in Gosport houses the 18th century organ, recently
restored thanks, largely, to the Heritage Lottery Fund.
The church is looking for volunteers to help run school workshops and public
events from May 2013 onwards, supporting visitors to enjoy and experience
the organ through hands-on activities.
Tasks might include:



Meeting and greeting school children and other groups, setting
up for school workshops and public events
Talking to groups about the story of the organ and about life at
Holy Trinity in the past
Introducing activities and giving demonstrations, helping visitors
to operate simple equipment and make models
As this is a new project, the church anticipates that demand for workshops
and activities will grow over a period of time. Opportunities to volunteer may
arise during the school day, at weekends and school holidays or in the
evenings so there is flexibility to get involved at times that suit you.
No musical knowledge is required, just an interest in working with people,
particularly children and families.
