Seagull Trust Cruises is a charitable organisation, wholly run by unpaid volunteers, that provides free barge trips for people with special needs. We have two Cruise boats at Falkirk, Govan Seagull and Barr Seagull. Both are fully accessible and we offer various cruise routes for guests to enjoy seven days a week.
Our busiest season is from April and October, and we need volunteers to help us to run our cruises and maintain our boats! Tasks include:
-Preperation of the boats
-Helming and driving
-Operating wheelchair lifts
-Welcoming our guests, making teas and coffees
We offer training and support for all our volunteers. So, if you want to do something different in good company then please reach out!
