VOLUNTEER Newsletter 26

Hi all

The ‘busy’ season is upon us! With many events and films in the offing.  If you are willing to help set up for Events as well as ‘Meet and Greet,’ please look out for the  ‘separate event slots’ on Rota Central.

Many of you will know that one of our U.S.P’s is the role that we play as Volunteers. This is the welcome and friendly rapport we create with our visitors. We ask that you give visitors your full attention i.e only using  mobiles on Cinema business and not using  your lap tops whilst at the Volunteer desk. 

On a couple of occasions recently FOH staff have been told about a lack of toilet paper, its an easy thing to check and very important to the overall impression that we give, PLEASE  remember to check this on  your shift!

 

St Peters Christmas Fair- (Southfield Rd, W41BB)- 11.00am-3pm

Craft and gift stalls, festive food and drink and Santa’s Grotto. We are having a small table. Please let either Amanda or me know (on Rapid Response: RR) if you can spare a couple of hours or come along to visit  to get into the Festive spirit!

 

Help ActOne with Easyfundraising

Before you start your  Christmas shopping, help the Cinema by signing up!

How does it work? Whenever you buy a product online from one of many retail outlets* they will donate a small amount to the Cinema. This costs you nothing and is very easy to do once it is set up on your computer. 

David Thaddeus, one of the Directors, is willing to help if you are having difficulty. Contact him through RR.
