Arts, Languages & Cultures

 

Looking for volunteering opportunities related to your degree in languages, arts or culture? Then Manchester is the city for you!

Manchester is full of cultural institutions, which need volunteers to stay open everyday. The rich heritage of the city offers exciting volunteering opportunities.

There are also opportunities in language-based projects where you can use your skills in your native or learned language to support the local community, for example in a conversation club for those with English as a second language.

Manchester Museum

Volunteers contribute to the Museum in many different ways. The roles available vary from visitor facing roles on the galleries to providing essential support to staff from the Museum’s curatorial, learning and engagement departments.
