Exhibition Volunteer – Hidden Now Heard project - Mencap

Are you keen to help more people understand what life was like for people with a learning disability living in long-stay hospitals in Wales?  If you are a creative person or someone looking for creative experience, wanting to make a difference in your local community, wanting an opportunity to work as part of a team, or wanting to learn more about learning disability history, then this could be the perfect role for you!

As an Exhibition Volunteer, you will be supporting the Hidden Now Heard project to design, create and manage a temporary exhibition, which will be capturing what life was like for staff and patients who used to live and work at long-stay hospitals/institutions.  The exhibition will be looking into Bryn y Neuadd hospital in Llanfairfechan, with the exhibition taking place at the brand new Storiel Museum, in Bangor. You will help to design the exhibition, and then present the exhibition to any visitors once the exhibition is live.

This is a one – off event: 28^th April – 1^st November 2016.
