Volunteer with us
We offer opportunities for people from all walks of life to help restore the Sharpness Branch line. It's a great way to learn lots of new skills or develop existing ones in a fun, friendly and enjoyable environment.
​
We need an increasing number of volunteers to help with all aspects of our project, whether that's actively at Oldminster Sidings or from home on the essential behind the scenes jobs. We are especially keen to welcome members from the local community and encourage them to join us. To volunteer you need to join as a member.
