Event Assistant

Spring Into Action

Join Spring into Action! In this rewarding role as an event assistant, supporting to run our famous Meet N Match events, consisting of Disco's, Open Mic Nights, Popworld and Pub Nights. 
Our volunteers are the heart of our organisation, helping to create a supportive environment where everyone can thrive. Whether you're eager to develop new skills, or looking to give back, there's a place for you here. We are more than a volunteering opportunity, we’re a movement toward an inclusive society where people with learning disabilities can fully participate and thrive. 

Why Volunteer with Us?

Your tasks as an event assistant volunteer are to help set up and decorate the venue, greeting people, taking money, selling raffle tickets, helping people to dance and socialise and most importantly, help people to have a fun time at the event, making sure people feel comfortable and are connecting with others.
