Volunteering

We have volunteering opportunities available at different times of the year supporting a wide range of projects including beach care, nature and wildlife, heritage and archaeology, Bay Cycle Way, Trampers and disabled access.

Would you like to join one of the longest-running research projects in the world? By signing up for our free training course, you can do just that!
We are looking for volunteers to help the Victoria County History project with researching the 'Big Red Books' of Cumbria. These will contain a detailed history of every parish and township in Cumbria. The books will bring together historic documents, expertly cared for by Cumbria Archive Service, and make them accessible to people all over the world. This is a massive task, so they need your help collecting the information that will go into them.
We have teamed up with the Victoria County History of Cumbria project to host a historical research training course which will give you all the skills you need to get involved.
Training sessions will be on Monday afternoons from the 6th of November to the 11th of December - four sessions will be online, and there will be a visit to Barrow Archives and an outdoor building history tour of Dalton-in-Furness.
You do not need any experience to get involved - just an interest in the past and a willingness to spend some time researching with us.
Sign up for the training course here, or see more course details here.
Take a look below at what we have achieved together.
