Stewarding

Interested in stewarding at an evening event?

Volunteer Stewards

Volunteer stewards are essential to the running and success of any event and we are extremely grateful to anyone wanting to help us. All will be working with Care for the Family staff and will never be left alone. Volunteers are not paid, but as you will be helping the event to run smoothly you will have free reserve seating and you will miss nothing of the event. Volunteers are requested to do their utmost to arrive at the venue in time for a 6.00 pm briefing and to be in position for doors open.

Liz Sheridan, a recent volunteer steward, wrote;

“It was amazing to be part of such a professional, well-organised team. We didn’t miss any of the event and I would definitely volunteer to help again. We were very well supported by the Care for the Family staff and were given a thorough briefing and shown exactly what to do. It was not only a privilege to serve but it was exciting and enjoyable too.”

Have a look at this video which gives a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes at a Care for the Family event:

• Helping manage people movement
• Handing out bottled water at the break
• Assisting the team on the resource/partners tables, before, during the break and for 15 minutes at the end of the event.
