How You Can Help

Volunteer Vacancies - We need you!

Could you contact or visit museums local to you?  Or perhaps you'd prefer to make contacts on the telephone?  Then again, would you be happier sitting at your PC or laptop entering data about museums and their collections or carrying out research on the Internet?

We're looking for volunteers help us in a number of areas including research, fund-raising, publicity and to train as speakers.  If you feel as strongly as we do about the rights of indigenous people to decide how their ancestors human remains and their cultural items should be stored, displayed, disposed of or repatriated - you can help!  Even if you can only offer a few hours each month, the nature of our work means that you can play an important part.

Please send us an email telling us a little about yourself and the kind of help that you think you could offer.  If you live in the UK and would like to talk to us, let us have a contact number and we'll give you a call.  Please put "Volunteering" in the subject heading of your email.  Click here to get started

We're also looking for trustees


If you'd like to play a more active role in setting Four Directions UK's agenda for the coming years and in helping to run the organisation, you could become one of our management trustees.  And if you work in the world of museums, archaeology or anthropology we'd especially like to hear from you.  But, if not, please do still get in touch.

Management committee meetings are likely to be held four or five times a year, possibly a little more frequently during the next twelve months as we develop our work and prepare an application for charitable status.  At least some meetings would be held in the London area but venues could be flexible depending upon where members of the committee live.

We want a trustee board of between eight and twelve people and want to reflect a broad spectrum of skills and knowledge within it.  For more information, send us an email with some details about yourself and we'll be in touch.  UK residents can include a telephone number if they're happy for us to contact them in that way.  Click here to get started
