Call out for volunteers

It’s your heritage too! 

In its heyday, the Smiddy was at the centre of the village’s working and social life. It was much frequented by locals and visitors.

The smiddy remains at the heart of the village as a work-base for a rural craft and home to a heritage hub for the local community.


There are regular small jobs and one-off big projects
that anyone can take part in.


People from far and wide have been volunteering at The Smiddy over the years, volunteers are our life-blood and we value their input enormously, we couldn’t do it without you.

Whether you are from the village or further away                                                                 it would be great to count you in our team of volunteers.


Contact us and we can make use of your existing skills or teach you something new.
