Would you like to volunteer with us?

The Hypatia Trust’s bookshop and events rely on the enthusiasm and commitment of our wonderful volunteers. Our volunteers are passionate about women’s stories and histories, and enjoy selling books, learning about archives and collections, and working with arts and cultural events. All volunteers enjoy a discount in the Bookshop and on tickets to Hypatia events, and other opportunities to get involved in our other programs, operations, and gatherings. 

We currently have no vacant volunteer positions but please do register your interest here and we’ll contact you as roles become available. Thank you!

Do you have a passion for Women’s history?

Women in Cornwall is an archive documenting the lives and achievements of women in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Women have made significant contributions to this region and we aim to foreground their stories, moving women from the margins of history to the centre. A new function of the archive allows anyone to suggest an entry to our growing archive of over 600 remarkable women.

Join our volunteer editorial team to guide contributions and other additions onto the site. No editorial experience necessary, just passion and enthusiasm for this unique regional initiative.
