Volunteering

Volunteering at Howick Hall Gardens & Arboretum

The Howick Volunteer Scheme (HGV’s) started in 2008 and we now have 20 working in the gardens, 11 tour guides, 30 manning the Visitor Centre and 6 recorders and photographers.

Most volunteers work one day a week but the arrangements can be flexible.

We welcome enquiries from anyone who is interested in joining our valuable team of volunteers.

Please contact the Estate Office: 01665 577285 or use the contact form opposite.
