Supporting Savera UK | March and Cultural Event

We have been invited to support Savera on this annual event. The length of task is longer than usual so just drop in the comments a guestimate of what time you would be available (as much or as little as you wish - all offers of time gratefully received) so we can inform the organisers and they have an idea of how to allocate tasks.

As to the day and the tasks what better way to describe it than from the organiser themselves who say the following:

Please see below the details of the Savera UK event, for the callout for volunteers from GoodGym. It was great having the GoodGym team support us last year, and we really appreciated the support, so hoping some volunteers can join us again for this event!

There will be refreshments for helpers and they will of course also be able to enjoy the performances!
