Volunteers needed for poetry festival

This article is brought to you by our exclusive subscriber partnership with our sister title USA Today, and has been written by our American colleagues. It does not necessarily reflect the view of The Herald.

VOLUNTEERS are needed to help run one of the UK’s leading poetry festivals.

A number of opportunities are available to get involved with Ledbury Poetry Festival, which runs from Friday July 5 to Sunday July 14, from stewarding events to helping out in the hospitality area.

The search is also on for people willing to provide bed and breakfast for the visiting poets, with the town’s hotels often being full to bursting during the summer event.

For more information, email manager@poetry-festival.co.uk.
