OUR AMAZING VOLUNTEERS

Our volunteers are much-valued members of the PK Porthcurno team and play an important role in supporting our visitors’ experience of the museum and its collections. 

We have various volunteer opportunities, including supporting our public services, digitising our archive collections, looking after our environment through Planet PK, and keeping our historic equipment in good working order.

As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to make new friends, share your skills and even improve your employment opportunities, knowing that your time and expertise are helping to support the work of an educational charity and independent museum
