Volunteer at The Roses
Volunteer at The Roses
The Roses is a friendly, warm, and inclusive space. As a volunteer you will be contributing to an important community centre and charity that provides joy to many people.
As a volunteer at The Roses, you'll be more than a helper—you’ll be a vital part of a friendly, inclusive team that brings joy to our community.
The time given by volunteers is crucial to the financial health of the charity and all our volunteers are very appreciated.
All volunteers are given training, and are often invited to staff training sessions. These might include First Aid, Health & Safety courses and more. When you start, you'll be paired with an experienced buddy to guide you until you feel confident.
Volunteer Roles Available
Stewarding during live shows and films
Volunteer stewards are managed by the Duty Manager. The job includes welcoming audiences into the venue, guiding them to their seats and making sure audiences are happy. Stewards also encourage audiences to buy from our café and bar areas and sign up to Friends memberships. Both are crucial income streams for the charity.
Stewards help the Front of House team clean and tidy the venue after each show.
You will have the opportunity to watch live shows and films while doing this role.
Café and Bar volunteers
Our café and bar volunteers man both of our bars. This fun role means providing excellent customer service to our hungry and thirsty audiences.
On most shifts you will have the opportunity to watch live shows and films while doing this role.
There are restrictions for underage volunteers covering these two roles due to the sale of alcohol.

Minimum: 1 shift per month
To uphold The Roses standards of Health & Safety and Customer Service
To be friendly, respectful, and welcoming to everyone
To be able to recognise a health & safety issue or health emergency and immediately report it to the Front of House Manager
We also request from time-to-time assistance in distributing brochures around the town and arranging to display posters in other local areas
