Eyes On, Hands On
The EOHO project enables those with an interest in our work to act as our eyes in their local area. Volunteers feedback information about the condition of war graves so our resources are best directed to headstones that need our attention. Volunteers will be able to visit local war grave sites in their area, to conduct inspections and play a vital role in helping us to maintain UK war graves.
Thanks to the amazing response for recruiting Eyes On, Hands On volunteers we are now only recruiting in specific towns and areas. If you are interested in volunteering, please see the list below to find out which areas are actively recruiting.
PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM, WE ARE NOT CONSIDERING REQUESTS FOR ANY LOCATION NOT SHOWN, AND WE ARE UNABLE TO OFFER A WAITING LIST AT THIS TIME.
Find out more about the Eyes On, Hands On role - and discover which areas are currently recruiting
Project Description
There are thousands of war graves with CWGC headstones scattered throughout the UK, primarily in local churchyards. Many of these sites have a single or a small cluster of graves (we call these ‘scattered headstones’). Our Operations teams currently inspect these scattered headstones on a rolling basis every 2 to 5 years. The Eyes On Hands On (EOHO) project ensures that scattered headstones are inspected at least twice a year by volunteers, and the condition of the headstones, together with an image is reported and recorded. Where issues are reported, such as legibility of the inscription or damage, these will then be reviewed for action by our skilled Operations Teams. In addition, volunteers are trained to perform basic cleaning and clearing of the headstones. (We only clean headstones when necessary and according to our Cleanliness policy.)
About the Role
As part of the role, you will receive full training on how to inspect headstones, report issues and clean/clear headstones where required. You will be allocated specific cemeteries in your local area depending on your location and time commitment and be provided with information you require to locate and identify the headstones.
The role involves carrying out an inspection of the allocated graves, reporting back on their condition and carrying out a simple cleaning and tidying operation to help maintain the headstone in a satisfactory condition. The activity of our EOHO volunteers enables our highly skilled workmen to focus on the more complex headstone maintenance activities (such as re-engraving or stone repairs using specialist tools).
What are the primary tasks for the role?
What are the primary tasks for the role?
Tasks include:
- Visit your allocated local cemeteries at least twice a year and
- Complete an online site report documenting the condition of the headstones.
- Take initial photographs of each headstone and upload them to our digital systems.
- Take subsequent photographs as required.
- If necessary, clean the headstone using our approved methods (simply water and a scrubbing brush)
- If necessary, perform light clearing and weeding around the gravestone to maintain access.
What commitment will I need to make?
This will depend on how many cemeteries you are allocated – each site and its headstones require an inspection every 6 months as a minimum. Other ad-hoc visits may be required. Volunteers take on as many cemeteries as they feel able to look after (the minimum is one).

Integrity
Commissioners, trustees, staff and volunteers must avoid placing themselves under any obligation to people or organisations that might try inappropriately to influence them in their work.

Behaviours and values
The Commission has clearly articulated values of respect, excellence, teamwork, communication, professionalism and commitment, each of which has associated behaviours.
