Volunteer at festivals

Volunteer at Oxfam festival shops

Applications for 2011 are now closed. Please do try again next year.

There are still stewarding places available for a few festivals.

Last year the Oxfam festival shop raised £250,000 and this year we would like current and experienced shop volunteers to help us raise even more!

Whether it be new music or festival fashion that takes your fancy, if you are confident in handling cash, sorting and pricing stock and can provide a good level of customer service we would love your help.

To be an Oxfam shop volunteer you must have:

  • three months' current experience of volunteering in an Oxfam shop

or

  • have volunteered at three festivals in the past.

  • Glastonbury
  • Latitude
  • Womad
  • Leeds
