Vulcan Events Volunteer

Vulcan Restoration Trust runs public events on specific days during the year and its Vulcan Events Volunteers help ensure these run smoothly and safely, as well as helping provide a high-quality experience for the Trust’s visitors. Vulcan Events Volunteers perform a wide range of duties including, but not limited to:

·         Engaging with visitors face-to-face and answering general questions and queries.

·         Serving visitors on the Trust’s retail stand.

·         Checking-in and welcoming visitors on arrival.

·         Engaging with exhibitors at events and dealing with any questions or problems they may have.

·         Showing individuals and groups of visitors around Vulcan XL426 and the Trust’s engineering facilities.

·         Car park marshalling.

·         Helping set-up and break-down before and after events.

·         Providing administrative support relating to events.

All volunteers must go through an induction process because there are health, safety and security issues as we work on a live aircraft at a commercial airport. To find out more, please go to https://avrovulcan.com/volunteer
