Help at Maidenhead Waterways Fun Day

We need volunteers to help at our annual Maidenhead Waterways Fun Day. This is our biggest event of the year with 4000 people attending for a host of free activities on or next to the water.

There are tasks for volunteers from 0800 setting up to 1600 clearing up. Even if you can just give one hour we would appreciate it.

Volunteers should report to the Friends of Maidenhead Waterways stall outside Bardo Lounge 4C, High St, Maidenhead SL6 1QJ (by the hanging bats statue).

Ask for Richard Davenport or Andrew Ingram.

Here is a snapshot of some of the tasks volunteers will be helping with.
