How can I help?

Our events would not be possible without the support of our volunteers. We are currently recruiting volunteers for Burghfest.

We have roles suitable for everyone including bar-staff, ambassadors, ticket desk staff and set-up/tear-down crew.

All volunteers receive a meal voucher, drink tokens and free admission on the day(s) of their shift(s) but more importantly have great fun and the satisfaction of giving back to the local community.

See our Burghfest Volunteer page for more details.

What is your Safeguarding Policy?

The Burghfield Santas  Safeguarding Policy ensures the safety and well-being of all participants, including volunteers, attendees, children, vulnerable adults, and those with disabilities. The policy is designed in accordance with UK safeguarding laws and guidelines, including the Children Act 1989, the Care Act 2014, and relevant best practice standards.

For more details see our Safeguarding Policy or contact our Designated Safeguarding Officer(DSO) at  safeguarding@burghfieldsantas.org.uk.

Do you have the appropriate permits for your events?

All Burghfield Santa events that are attended by the general public are organised in accordance with UK legislation. We have the necessary permissions and licenses to host public events in public places. This includes:

This license governs the use of copyright music across the UK, giving businesses and organisations the legal permission they need to play the music they want. These licences ensure that music publishers, songwriters and composers are fairly rewarded with royalties so they can keep making music.
PPL collects and distributes money on behalf of performers and record companies for the use of their recorded music.
  • Permission for temporary road closure for Box Kart
  • Permission to use public land.
  • Premises license for Burghfest.
  • License to sell raffle tickets for all events
A temporary event notice (TEN) allow us to hold one-off licensable events at unlicensed premises without the need for a premises license, club premises certificate or the presence of a personal license holder, provided certain criteria are met.
