Volunteer

It takes hundreds of people behind the scenes to pull off an event as large as Spring Harvest, so we rely on a team of volunteers to help out! Join us this year and you'll be part of a brilliant team who get to experience Spring Harvest by serving.

Why volunteer?

Apart from the heartfelt thanks from both us and the guests, you'll also get:

  • Free accommodation (shared)
  • 3 meals a day
  • Ministry gift
  • Free Programme Planner & mug
  • 10% discount at the Spring Harvest Stand
  • Privilege (discount) prices for Spring Harvest Holidays in France

Teams and availability

Who can apply?

We welcome all sorts of people on to our teams, young and old! You just need to be:

  • 18 on 31st March – there's no upper age limit as long as you have stamina!
  • Happy to work within the EA Basis of faith and the Lausanne covenant
  • Committed to spending the week serving, over and above attending meetings
  • Available for one entire Spring Harvest week
  • Able to obtain a satisfactory Criminal Records Bureau disclosure

References

You'll need a reference from a senior Leader at the Church you attend at least once a month. You may also be asked for a second reference.

Criminal Records Bureau Enhanced Disclosure

Every Volunteer is asked to obtain a CRB disclosure which takes up to 8 weeks after you return a completed form to us.  If you have queries about CRBs contact your Team Administrator (see contact details below).

» More detailed info on CRB Disclosures

Acceptance on Team

The leader for the team you're applying to will read your references and application, then your team administrator will contact you - make sure you give us a daytime phone number and a current email address so we can reach you.

Some teams fill up fast and your place on team isn't confirmed until you have received an acceptance email from your Team Administrator (can take at least 8 weeks for the whole process, including CRB). Don't make any travel plans until you're sure you have an acceptance email from your team administrator!

Pre-event information and other details 

Just before the event in March we'll contact all volunteers with information about arrival days and times, information about your role, travel information, etc.
