Volunteers

For over 30 years, the most incredible group of people have been offering their time to make Christmas special for everyone in and around Norwich. From driving our guests to and from their homes, prepping huge piles of potatoes ready to be roasted, or handing out clothes and bedding to those in need, our volunteers are the bedrock of Norwich Open Christmas' continued success. 

Whether you're a first-time volunteer or a veteran, you are sure to have a great day giving back to the people in your community.
