Mount Edgcumbe American and Classic Car Show and Summer Fayre Volunteers

This popular car show and family day out raises essential funding for two local South West charities. The event depends entirely on volunteers without whom it would not happen. By giving us two hours of your time (or more), we guarantee you a GREAT day out for FREE!!! 

And what’s more, you can fill every seat in your car, so your family and friends also get to enjoy the day out for...FREE!!!

Volunteering at our fundraising events is a great way to support these 2 charities and without a regular commitment. Our fundraising team host a variety of exciting events throughout the year and on this occasion we are looking for volunteers to help us with this fun family event alongside the Friends of Mount Edgcumbe Country Park. As an event volunteer you will be part of the team to help ensure the day runs smoothly and successfully. For the Mount Edgcumbe Classic Car Show and Summer Fayre, we are asking for volunteers who will be available on Sunday 4th August. 

If you are interested in helping us at this event then please contact Jade Hugo on 01726 66868 (option 3) or email jhugo@cornwallhospice.co.uk.
