Volunteers announcement
January 5, 2024
Can you volunteer some time to the Scarecrow Festival? We are looking for volunteers both new and experienced.
Anyone can volunteer to help. We understand that people have busy lives and many Parishioners host friends and family from outside the area over the festival, so we invite volunteers who can commit to anything from a couple of hours to the whole festival. It all helps.
Please fill in the contact form on our
Volunteer page or email us at
rota@urchfontscarecrows.co.uk for more information and to let us know you are interested in volunteering.
