A regional volunteering group are launching a new cohort in Bridlington called ‘HEY! Brid’ and are looking for residents to sign up in their first wave of recruitment.
It comes after HEY! Volunteering was set up to support Hull’s year as UK City of Culture in 2017 and since then has continued to support arts, culture and heritage across the region.
And to mark the campaign to recruit volunteers in the Bridlington area, a Random Acts of Kindness Day will take place round the town on 17th February.
A spokesperson for HEY! explained: “Volunteers will support events, venues and organisations in Bridlington that have an arts, culture or heritage focus, for example:
- Bridlington Spa- Freedom Festival
- Bridlington Heritage Open Days
- Bridlington Kite Festival
- Bridlington Pride
- Bridlington Old Town events
“There are loads of benefits to volunteering and being part of HEY! Brid, from confidencefriends to boosting skills and improving employability. Volunteering with HEY! Brid is open to everyone aged 16+.We are entirely inclusive, entirely flexible and there’s no minimum commitment required.
“Volunteers decide what shifts they sign up to according to interests and availability – whether that’s once a week, once a month or a couple of times a year. Volunteers also get access to a free masterclass programme where they can try their hand at a diverse range of creative or skills building activities.” added the spokesperson.
