The Volunteers

The Nothe Fort is operated by volunteers of the Weymouth Civic Society. Some 80 people take turns to man the reception when the Fort is open, 30 of which turn to every Thursday in winter to maintain the building, create displays and care for the collection. Others help run the very successful special days for schools - the "Evacuee Experience".

We are always looking for new volunteers to partake in the following activities:-

* Maintenance carpentry, electrics and electronics, decorating and metalwork.
* Building Displays model making, graphic design and costume making.
* Collection Care conservation, documentation.
* Reception greeting visitors, manning the shop, general security duties and guiding parties.
* School Experience story telling, demonstrating Home Front aspects of WW2.
