BRESSINGHAM STEAM MUSEUM AND SOCIETY NEED MORE VOLUNTEERS!!
Are you interested in our industrial heritage? Do you like trains? Have you been thrilled by the sight of a steam locomotive passing you by, or the power of a traction engine working at a rally? Do you have time to spare – weekdays or weekends, summer or wintertime?
If the answer to these questions is yes, then Bressingham Steam Museum could use your time and effort!
Tucked away on the Norfolk / Suffolk border near to Diss, Bressingham boasts a collection of steam engines and industrial artefacts that's hard to rival. And this is not the whole picture - It’s prided itself on being a family friendly venue and a great day out for young and old for years. It offers something hard to define but almost unique.
Bressingham is a registered charity and makes no profit from its activities but invests all income into the preservation and maintenance of our steam heritage. It receives no funding or assistance and is entirely self supporting. There is a small team of paid staff but since the 1960’s it has relied and survived on the dedication of volunteers, who get involved in everything from administration and publicity to hands-on work repairing and maintaining the site, engines and other attractions, the miles of track or even driving the trains! However we never have enough people to cover all the work that needs to be done. The volunteers’ support group – Bressingham Steam Society – is looking for more recruits! With more hands doing the many jobs required then we can maximise the attractions on offer to our visitors during the high season. If you like the idea of working in such an environment then WE WANT YOU! No prior experience or skills are required but if you do have them, all the better! The workforce at Bressingham is very welcoming and full training, including health and safety, will be provided (plus copious cups of tea!).
