There are numerous ways in which you can play a valuable part in making Farnham Carnival a success. The reason is simple: Carnival is planned, organised and run entirely by volunteers from the local community with the financial support of our sponsors without either of these, the event could not take place.
However, key to its enduring success is that Carnival doesn’t stand still. We’re always looking for new ideas and new support to help make each Carnival the best yet. So, let us know how you could help by completing the form above. One thing is for sure: whatever you can offer to do, you’ll have a great time getting involved!
What if taking a stall or entering the procession is not for you, but you’d still like to get involved?
So, what can you do?
Are you good at making things happen or have great ideas for putting together fun events? Have you thought of joining one of the organising committee responsible for planning all the various elements of the event?
Or perhaps of joining the many friendly teams of like-minded helpers who work on the day to make Carnival the biggest and most exciting event in Farnham’s calendar?
For example, there are opportunities to assist in the setting up the Fayre on Gostrey Meadow on the Saturday morning, to help with making sure the Fayre runs smoothly during the day, or with clearing away in the evening or on Sunday
We are also always looking for help in assembling of the Carnival Parade in the Upper Hart car park during the afternoon, or perhaps later with marshalling of the busy Parade route around the town centre
Our work is generally organised into two-hour shifts, but volunteers arrange to devote as much or as little time as they feel able. There are no particular requirements other than perhaps enthusiasm, but if you have some expertise or knowledge that you think would be helpful, please let us know as below. All offers of help are gratefully received and will be acknowledged.
If you think you’d like to help, we would love to hear from you, so please use the contact form below with your contact details and we will be in touch.
