The different volunteer roles available:

Front of House

Most of our volunteers work front of house as stewards for our events. They are responsible for checking tickets, helping people to their seats and evacuating the performance spaces in the event of an emergency.

Heritage

Volunteers help us to manage our heritage centre. They undertake local historical research, help the public with their enquiries and keep our research room and information kiosk up to date.

Box Office

Our Box Office volunteers help us by selling tickets and answering queries. They work on our computerized box office system and are very good at keeping our customers happy.

Marketing

Volunteers in our marketing team help us in a number of different ways including proofreading, distributing posters and leaflets, and ensuring The Spring has a digital presence.

Administration

We have lots of admin tasks that need doing to keep The Spring running efficiently. Some volunteers help us by managing specific projects or by supporting us on an ad hoc basis with tasks including collating customer feedback, updating spreadsheets and working with the finance team.

Operations and Technical

We want The Spring to be a well-run and maintained place. Volunteers support our operations and technical team with tasks including gardening, screening films and helping support our technicians.

If any of the above roles suit your skills, then please get in touch with us.
