Besides serving and taking card payments, duties include setting out the bar and clearing down at the end of the evening. Don't worry if you've never done bar work before, we'll happily show you how everything works.
Working behind the bar is extremely sociable and you get to chat to many of our members. So if you've ever fancied yourself as a Bet Lynch, Peggy Mitchell or Sam Malone, now's your chance

This is always a 2-person operation and our volunteers can take on either role, i.e. moving the stacks or laying out the chairs so you don't need to be Arnold Schwarzenegger to help as long as you're comfortable with a bit of light lifting
