Glastonbury Latest

  • Cooks and kitchen helpers needed

    To cater for 1,000 site staff around this year's Festival, we are looking for experienced/qualified chefs and cooks, as well as kitchen helpers who need to be hard working, but not necessarily qualified.

    They will either be employed from the beginning of June until mid July; or from 17th June – 2nd July. Shifts will be about 8 hours a day, with some early and some late shifts.

    All chefs, cooks and helpers will be paid. They will also get a staff pass to the Festival and some time off during the Festival itself. But they will have to work during event days. This is hard work, rather then just an easy way into the Festival.

    Staff will have to bring their own camping equipment, but food, showers and washing machines are provided.

    If you are interested please send a CV detailing relevant experience and any food hygiene or other qualifications to worthy@glastonburyfestivals.co.uk - stipulating whether you are looking to be employed for two weeks or seven weeks.

  • Help save BBC 6 Music

    It was announced this morning that the BBC is to close its superb 6 Music radio station as part of a cost-cutting shake-up. The station - and its DJs - have been huge supporters of Glastonbury, so we'd certainly like to do our bit to help them out now. We're also saddened at the closure of the BBC Asian Network, which has broadcast some great stuff from the Festival over the years.

    We believe that the decision to close the stations is the wrong one. If you agree, then please email trust.enquiries@bbc.co.uk to explain why you'll miss 6 and/or Asian Network or complete the Trust's BBC Strategy Review Online Survey. The BBC Trust will have to approve the closures and may yet refuse to do so if enough people show their support. A few minutes' effort could really make a difference.

    Thank you.
