SIGN UP HERE TO BECOME AN INTERWOVEN EVENT STEWARD
"It takes a Village ....." Want to join the Village People?!
No, cowboy hats not required!! But we do believe that asking a just little bit from a lot of peops is the best way to support our communities.
Signing up to be an Event Steward is an easy way to offer up just a little bit of your time, as and when you're able. If you'd like to get out, meet wonderful people, explore parts of Exeter and East Devon that you've never seen before .... and know that you're doing good, then this is for you.
Past events have ranged from community star-gazing, to outdoor performance, lantern parades and guided country strolls but they are always joyful, community-building and celebratory. So this is a great way to do a little good in the world, get outdoors and have a some fun too.
We will publish below an ongoing calendar of community events here so that you can pick and choose, signing up for those that interest you.
Why not choose one and give it a try to see if you like the cut of our jib! ......
Get in touch below or call JoJo on 07855 935137 for joining details.

NEXT STEPS
If you've tried us out and this feels like just the kind of volunteering that you’re looking for then please follow these three easy steps:-
The Steward role is one of the easiest Interwoven voluntary roles to sign up to. As they are public outdoor happenings we don’t require you to undertake DBS clearance. We do provide a full health and safety risk assessment though and the recruitment, support and training of our wonderful Stewards is part of that. We do ask for a reference from an organisation you have worked or volunteered for or your University/college and we will give you Induction and Training and a specific Steward’s Briefing at the beginning of each event. There is lots of progression potential for other volunteering roles which will mean that DBS clearance may become necessary but, the great news is that these roles often come with lots of free development opportunity too.
There is a Volunteering Agreement and Role Description so that you know exactly what the expectation is on both sides.
Once you’re in the bank of wonderful Interwoven Stewards you’ll find that you meet with like-minded folk – those who want to take some positive action in these challenging times but also to make new friends and explore and learn about the places that we all share.
We’re really excited to see you!
