Three volunteers from Glasgow have just completed several days working at the British Museum as part of the Wave of Friendship volunteer exchange programme. According to one of the volunteers, 'We were listened to, we asked difficult questions and got open and honest answers. Most of all, we felt like members of a community. Staff inspired us, and we were blown away by the generosity of the people we met on our trip. It was far more than we expected, and offered us a unique insight into the museum'.
You can apply to take part in the Wave of Friendship individually or with friends or family members, with a support assistant or as a group. You just need to find a suitable volunteering opportunity and apply!
