Durham Regatta sees over 2000 competitors compete over 2 days in front of over 10,000 spectators, bringing a spectacular weekend of racing and bank-side entertainment to Durham City.
The Regatta is looking to recruit volunteers to help make the 191st Durham Regatta the best yet! We want to hear from those over 18 who have a friendly personality and a passion for the outdoors and meeting new people as well as different skills and life experiences.
The volunteer roles are ideal for someone who is volunteering for the first time or who is a seasoned professional.
Volunteers will;
* Assist Durham Regatta spectators with directions and answer questions about the Regatta’s program of events.
* Working alongside fellow Regatta volunteers, security and medical teams assist in the smooth running of the event for spectators and competitors.
* Support various roles across the site including, spectators’ pedestrian and vehicle access gates, and spectators’ ticket sales, and assist VIP spectators within the VIP area.
Durham Regatta is a valued and integral event in the Durham City and County Durham events calendar, and adds life to an already vibrant riverside area. As well as this the Regatta creates an unforgettable day or weekend out for all.
