Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Fill in the volunteer form on the Volunteer page (name, address, phone and email are required), or email info@friendsofhistoricsedgeley.org to ask about visiting or volunteering..

You need to sign up first.

What to expect

Open days are set by the group and include informal tours with Sedgeley Club members. The site does not say how long a visit takes, whether volunteer shifts have set hours, or what roles exist. No visit fee is listed.

Tips for your first visit

  • Check the blog or email for the next open day, since none are listed on the visit page.
  • Use the contact address to ask what a volunteer does before you fill in the form.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: Public visits on set days let a newcomer see the boathouse first. The volunteer form is the only listed way in, and the site does not describe roles or an orientation, so the way in is not clear..
