Volunteering Open Day

Meet the people behind our volunteer community and hear about their experiences in the park.
Discover

Come along to our volunteering open day and discover the different ways you can get involved at Crystal Palace Park. 
This is your chance to meet local people who already volunteer at the park, hear first-hand about their experiences, and take part in short demonstrations and tours.

Our Volunteer Supervisors will be around throughout the day to chat about the different roles and help you find an opportunity that’s right for you. 
Whether you’re looking to meet new people, learn new skills, spend more time outdoors or just try something different, there are lots of ways to get involved and make a difference.

This is a free event and well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome.

A few things to know

Our volunteer opportunities are suitable for people aged 18+. 

We welcome disabled volunteers and are happy to talk to you about your individual needs and make adjustments to our volunteering opportunities where possible.

Some opportunities, including those in the Subway and Museum, take place in venues that are not currently accessible to people who use wheelchairs. If you’re interested in volunteering, please talk to us about your access needs and we’ll be happy to discuss the opportunities available.

If you have any questions, please get in touch
