Volunteer Numbers and Days
We are able to accommodate up to 20 volunteers on each volunteer day (larger teams can be facilitated upon request). Dates are restricted due to school holidays.
As a result, the below date range applies:
Wednesday 29th July to Friday 28th August
On-site support
On the day Participate will be providing a member of staff to support the volunteers. A trained first aider and first aid kit will be available during the challenge. A tools talk and health and safety briefing will be given by Participate at the beginning of the day. We will also share with you our completed Risk Assessment for your own records.
Preparation
Volunteers will be undertaking painting activities and are required to wear old and reasonably robust clothing that you will not mind getting paint on. We do offer paint overalls, although these do not guarantee no damage to clothing. We also require sensible sturdy footwear, avoiding heels and open toe footwear. Where personal protective equipment is required, it will be provided.
