Tasks include giving out programmes and rattling donation buckets, contacting stallholders during the day as directed, assisting at the gazebo and helping to direct people to services and stalls.

“We try to ensure everyone has time off and doesn't do anything for too long,” a spokesperson for the event said. “We provide refreshments and you will be invited to the volunteers thank you event on the evening of December 8.”
