Volunteering opportunities

Volunteering is at the very heart of our organisation.

The energy, initiative and generosity of our volunteers is key to a successful, sustainable future – both for Port Sunlight Village Trust and the village as a whole.

Our volunteers donate their valuable time right across the charity. They provide guided tours of the village; research our museum collections; help to maintain our parks and gardens; steward in our museums and historic buildings; support our social groups and elderly residents; and so much more.

To find out more about our volunteering opportunities and to apply, please email volunteering@portsunlightvillage.com. If you need any assistance, please call 0151 644 4800.
