Volunteering Opportunities

Volunteers play a vital role at the SPAB, from helping us run events, to interpreting the archives and assisting with our enormous volume of casework. Find out how you can get involved.

We are not currently able to offer internships or work experience placements. We do have plenty of other opportunities to get involved with building conservation work, including our Working Parties.
