I think if you can offer some training in advance, they could conduct some oral history interviews to adult visitors - set questionnaires could be provided. Or if not specific oral history interviewing, some kind of audience development work such as evaluation forms or membership fundraising? Both don't require in-depth training if the offers are kept simple. It is also worth finding out about their level of Historical knowledge connected to the museum and tie some activities with those specific people e.g. for collection-handling activities. Obviously, children are a no-go if they don't have DBS approvals. Good luck! you have a strong opportunity to devise some spontaneous volunteering!!
