Volunteering at the Museum
We are a non-profit organisation dedicated to preserving Riverstone’s history, and rely on volunteers to run both the society and museum. We can always do with more help, particularly at the museum. With the opening of the new museum building, we are in need of extra volunteers.
If you have some spare time and would like to contribute to the community, why not volunteer with the museum? From helping with displays to local history research work, we are sure to have something to suit you.
If you are interested in volunteering at the museum, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
