Volunteering is an important part of our project, helping visitors experience the great maritime heritage of the city.
Volunteer for Hull Maritime!
We're looking for enthusiastic people to join us in bringing Hull's maritime story to life.
There is a range of exciting volunteering opportunities, from delivering engaging guided tours to helping conserve historic maritime artefacts and welcoming visitors to world‑class heritage venues including the Maritime Museum, the Arctic Corsair and the Spurn Lightship.
All volunteers receive full training, a uniform and ongoing support to help them thrive in their role.
Our volunteering programme is delivered in partnership with HEY! Volunteering, so you’ll be directed through their platform to apply and sign up.
Once part of HEY! Volunteering, you’ll also gain access to a wide variety of additional opportunities across the city and region - plus exclusive free masterclasses should you wish to get involved even further.

Why volunteer?
Cliff Gledhill, a volunteer, said: “The great thing about being a volunteer is the satisfaction of talking to different people, helping them, sharing views and knowledge.”
David Elgey who volunteers for Hull Maritime, said: “I became a volunteer as I came from a barge family and grew up with that background. The maritime side of Hull is in my blood, this pride inspired me to share my city's maritime heritage with visitors.”
