In the run up to the festival we are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help us to deliver our exciting programme of literary events happening in our spectacular venues and online.

"We will provide professional development opportunities, with tips and advice on job applications and signposting you to relevant opportunities to build on experience develop at our festival".

Some examples of roles will include event stewards, information stewards, runners and technical support.

You do not need any previous experience as we will be on hand to support you. We do ask that you are over 18 years of age and are able to make a commitment to attend one of the three days across the festival.
