Recently, our Outdoor Employment Programme Trainees were pleased to join Glastonbury Festival as part of Oxfam's fully funded Volunteer Scheme!
Young Bristol and Glastonbury Festival were pleased to invite six young people from our Outdoor Employment Programme to volunteer at the iconic festival! The group worked in numerous sections across the festival weekend as part of Oxfam's fully funded Volunteer Scheme.
When our trainees weren’t volunteering, the group soaked up the amazing atmosphere during the festival, listened to some great music performed live by a number of artists as well as met other volunteers who were invited to join the festival from a number of other different schemes and programmes!
“I'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who arranged for us to join the Oxfam volunteers, and helped to make an amazing opportunity for us all. It's been incredible to work at and enjoy Glastonbury for the first time this year. Woke up in my own bed this morning and it all felt like a crazy dream”
said Jay, Outdoor Employment Trainee
We would like to extend a huge thank you to the team at Glastonbury Festival, Worthy Farm and Oxfam for making this opportunity possible for a number of our trainees and helping them to make this an unforgettable experience! Well done and thank you to all the trainees that attended who worked incredibly hard during their shifts and helped to make the whole event a success!
