We raise money for our charities, including St Michael & All Angels, which organises the Festival. To find out how your firm can be involved as a sponsor, or by donating goods or services, or how we can promote each other on social media, click here: Commercial opportunities or email Torin Douglas.
High Roller Tombola: We already have someone who may help to source many of the prizes; we urgently need someone to co-ordinate a rota for the Saturday, and help get more prizes
Children’s Corner: We are seeking someone to co-ordinate Children’s Corner – to organise a rota as well as activities for the children over the 2 days.
Church Stall: We already have enough merchandise to sell on the stall, but a good team needs to be recruited and led by someone. The team will need to sell church merchandise as well as provide information to the public.
To volunteer for any of these roles, or to offer general help for Green Days please email Lee Harman or Lara Harman.
