Meet our volunteers
We’re so grateful for our volunteers and the work they do over the festival weekend. We could not run the festival without their support and involvement.
Here’s what some of them have said about volunteering:
 |

“With 13 years working as a Willy Lit Fest volunteer, I can recommend the experience for anyone who cares about books, lively discussion and doing something worthwhile”. |

Deb Curtis
“Participating in this community event is absolutely fantastic! I have met lots of new people in my neighbourhood. I was also lucky enough to meet Barry Cassidy who was only to pleased to autograph his book which was a gift to my husband for his birthday”. |

Roger Holloway
“In my 12 years of volunteering for the Willy Lit Fest I have made many friends, attended inspiring presentations and ready many great books. I wouldn’t miss it for quids”. |
