Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway Trust is holding a volunteer recruitment day this week (Saturday April 2).

The session, at Winchcombe station at 1.30pm, is all about the volunteer roles currently available at the heritage railway.

If you would like to attend the two-hour, informal session, please email recruitment.officer@gwsr.com.

Becoming a volunteer on the railway is a great opportunity to help keep one of Gloucestershire's foremost visitor attractions running. Uniquely for a heritage railway of the size of GWRT, it relies almost exclusively on volunteers to keep it running. The professionalism which the railway's volunteers bring to their roles is always appreciated by visitors.

Volunteer recruitment sessions take place monthly throughout the year on the following dates:

• May 21

• June 18

• July 16

• August 20

• September 17

• October 15

• November 19

Prospective volunteers can also submit an online application here.
