Our Volunteers
The festival is lucky to have a committed team of enthusiastic volunteers, all of whom are self-confessed bookworms. This group of friends, family and long-time festival fans work hard to ensure your festival experience is a great one. Coordinated by Front of House Manager Saneia Norton, the team are always ready to answer questions, obsess over favourite authors and offer you a warm welcome!
