Supporting Families to Enjoy the Festival
Fancy giving your time supporting our event rest tent and enjoying the weekend with us?
A fantastic opportunity for you to join us, help give support and see the festivals.
What do we provide?
A simple place for a Mother to rest and Baby to feed, with less distraction. With the added benefit of having someone with midwivery and maternity care experience, to provide support any worries and answer any questions. It helps the family enjoy the festival more.
….do you have a ‘let’s make it work’ character?
We camp together and create a rota for the Rest Tent. Inbetween your rota, time is yours to enjoy the festival. In general, the tent support is from 10.30am to 8.30pm, this is guided by the ‘feel’ of the festival goer’s. You will then be free to enjoy the evening part of the festival.
….do you enjoy meeting new people?
The Rest Tent will always be supported by a min of 3 people. This will be determined by the experience levels and the numbers of volunteers. We get lots of volunteers, so the rota is fairly shared. No one will be put in a position they are professionally uncomfortable with.
….do you enjoy festivals?
There is an element of ‘make it work’ because of the nature of the enviroment, the event, and the public, can change plans quickly. The ability to adapt is important and something to keep in mind. We also provide a breakfast bap and a simple evening meal (like baked potatoe and chilli).
If you have a ‘let’s make it work’ character, like being at a festival and want to support families with us……get in touch.
