Mary – Learning and Engagement Officer

How long have you worked at Harewood? Nearly 4 years – I started as a volunteer in 2020!

Background: I was a primary school teacher for three years and my passion for history led me to volunteer at Harewood at the weekends. Eventually, I decided to study for a master’s in history at the University of York and work as part of the learning and engagement team at Harewood.  I love my job because every day is different and I still get to teach children my favourite subject – History!
