We will also use your mobile number to contact you on site should we need to contact you regarding your volunteering or in an emergency. We ask your gender so that we can provision onsite services proportionally.

• Emergency contact
  Oxfam Festivals has a duty of care to look after its volunteers, this includes being able to alert someone you designate in the event of an emergency.

We will ask for your registration plate so that your vehicle is permitted to enter site,and should we need to identify vehicles on site for any reason we can do so.
• If you are bringing children
  At some festivals, we allow volunteers to bring their children if they have a ticket and there is support to look after the child while you are on shift. This information allows us to contact you for further details should you wish to apply to bring children.
