'Volunteers Week 2016' is coming up in June, and we here at the Volunteers Portal will be sharing stories of some of Fulham Palace's 190-plus volunteers. That means you! Tell us what brought you to Fulham Palace when you first started out, or what keeps you coming back now.
We want to hear about why you volunteer at the Palace, and if you've got any interesting pictures or anecdotes please do send them along to volunteerwebsite@fulhampalace.org , or drop by and have a chat with us on Monday or Tuesday. Video and audio clips also welcome (we can help with that). No story is too short!
If you come along to the Volunteer Summer Party in July you might get a chance to meet some of the lovely people featured here on the Portal. Don't forget to RSVP, which you can do here.
To help us get started I'll tell you a little bit about myself. I'm Juliana, one of the Communication Assistant volunteers. You can find me at the computer in the Education Centre on Tuesday mornings. I started volunteering at Fulham Palace to learn more about the museum and heritage sector, and am looking forward to meeting lots of interesting new people. Volunteering at such a beautiful site is a treat, I look forward to seeing how the garden changes over the coming months. I have also heard tales of the Bothy Biscuits. I'll come check them out if the Learning Centre ever runs out of cake -- unlikely!
