Volunteer Testers Needed for New British Postal Museum & Archive Website

The British Postal Museum & Archive (BPMA) is building a new website and is looking for in-person and virtual volunteers to help them test it.

According to a post on the BPMA website, "All volunteer testers will go into the draw to win a voucher from Amazon worth £50. You can participate in the testing programme by either attending a Group Session or by becoming a Virtual Tester."

In-person testers will be asked to use a draft version of the new BPMA website and complete a number of tasks. The virtual testing programme will involve participants accessing a draft version of the new website on their computer and completing an online survey. This should take about 20 minutes and participants will be able to complete this at any point between Monday 28 March and Friday 15 April.

In-person training programs will take place:

2-4pm, Monday 4 April in Clerkenwell, Central London

10.30am-12.30pm, Saturday 9 April in Brixton, South London

Travel expenses to attend a session if you are travelling from within London or the South East of England. Light refreshments will be supplied at the sessions according to the post.

If you would like to volunteer to attend either of the in-person training sessions or to become a virtual tester, e-mail blog@postalheritage.org.uk .
