Volunteering
If you have some spare time and would like to be more involved in the
work of the Trust then why not consider volunteering. The Trust has lots
of different opportunities where you can help support its work and this
can either be on a regular or irregular basis. Without volunteers the
Trust would not be able to open sites such as Le Moulin de Quétivel
or manage The Elms walled garden.
So why not review the opportunities below and discover a way of actively
participating in caring for Jersey’s heritage ?
Le Moulin de Quétivel
The mill is open from May to September and is totally manned by volunteers.
If you have a morning or afternoon available every two weeks and would
like to assist in the shop and provide information to our visitors then
please contact our mill volunteer co-ordinator, Karen Evans, on
01534-483193.
The Elms Organic Walled Garden
The Trust is has restored the walled garden at The Elms. This organic
garden is used to grow local trees, wild flowers, heritage vegetables
and a small orchard. If you would like to help with the garden, then please
contact the Trust office on 01534 483193.
Educational Officer
The Trust is hoping to develop and implement an educational programme
in order to establish key links with the island’s schools. If you
have an educational background and would like to assist with this new
development then please call, the Trust’s Chief Executive, Charles
Alluto, on 01534-483193.
Jersey Conservation Volunteers
Together with Men of the Trees, Société Jersiaise, and Action
for Wildlife the Trust has helped to re-establish the Jersey Conservation
Volunteers. If you enjoy undertaking practical conservation work in respect
of Jersey’s natural environment then why not consider helping with
one of our tasks. For more information please view our task programme
or contact the Trust office, on 01534 483 193.
Trust Events
The Trust organises a number of events each year for its members and the
general public. If you are able to commit yourself to helping us at one
event annually, whether it be collecting tickets, helping with the teas
or setting up the event, then please call the Trust office, on 01534-483193.
Heritage Open Day
Each year the Trust opens approximately 20 historic
buildings free to the public. This event harnesses an enormous amount
of voluntary support and last year over 4,300 visits were recorded to
the various sites. If you would be willing to help us during Heritage
Open Day either by acting as a guide, helping with refreshments or being
a car parking attendant, then please call the Trust office, on 01534-483193.
Your support is much appreciated and we look forward to hearing from
you.
