Volunteer

WHALE Arts strives to offer a range of volunteering opportunities that allow people to develop their skills and experience in a supportive, creative environment.  Our current opportunities are listed below so if you are interested in discussing these, or any ideas you might have, in more detail then please get in touch.

Volunteer Awards: We are delighted smART CRAFT volunteer Latisha Reihill received an Individual Achievement Award at the Inspiring Volunteering Achievement Awards 7 June 2016, and Community Cinema and Digital Sentinel volunteer David Jacobs received an award 7 June 2017. Fabien Merville, Jan Davies, and Julia Davies are recipients of The Spirit of WHALE Award.

Individual Opportunities

Reception/Admin Support:  We are looking for volunteer support to help provide a warm welcome to people visiting ‘the WHALE’ and basic administrative support to building users and tenants.  If you have a few hours to spare each week we would love to hear from you.

Team Opportunities

With over 7000 visitors each year, ‘the WHALE’ needs regular maintenance to keep it looking great. Painting, gardening, and team cleans all play an important part in this process and offer a great way for staff from our corporate supporters to make a difference in our community.

WHALE Arts is …

... the cultural anchor organisation for Wester Hailes. We are a community-led arts charity and social enterprise, set up by local people in 1992. Our mission is to be the creative heart of a vibrant, thriving community.
