Heritage & Collections Volunteers

Heritage & Collections Volunteers – everything from ‘hands on’ tinkering and fixing to restoring really big things !

Do you enjoy working with your hands tinkering and repairing, fixing or recreating things? Have a passion for heritage, vintage or old things?
Or just looking to envoy volunteering with a great team of people?

Transport Heritage NSW is looking for volunteers to join our passionate Heritage & Collection team and work on a range of different projects to help us restore, care for and conserve a wide range of rail heritage collection items for generations to come.
