A volunteering scheme which was set up to support Hull's City of Culture events in 2017 is to expand to Bridlington.
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.
It's now opening an offshoot in Bridlington and they are looking for residents to sign up in their first wave of recruitment.
Program Manager Abi Bell says there are some exciting projects in the works.
Volunteers will support events, venues and organisations in Bridlington that have an arts, culture or heritage focus, here is Abi with more details:
The team behind HEY! Brid say there are lots of benefits to volunteering from confidence building and meeting new friends to boosting skills and improving employability.
Volunteering with HEY! Brid will be open to everyone aged 16+ with 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 will also get access to a free masterclass programme where they can try their hand at a diverse range of creative or skills building activities.
