Become a Friend or Volunteer

Friends and Volunteers

Your Support

The Water Tower is managed entirely by volunteers. Your support is vital to us, as only with it we can successfully maintain the Water Tower, the Hermitage, Folly Bridge and the Historic Landscape Garden.
Your help enables us to open this unique building and historic garden to the general public for their pleasure and your enthusiasm will inspire them.

There are many opportunities for you to help, if you wish to do so, with the fund raising or general activities. However whether you wish to visit occasionally or take more of an active part in the team, whatever your skills and interests and wherever you live there will be a welcoming place for you as a volunteer or Friend of the Carshalton Water Tower.
