Stockport based charity Walthew House is urgently in need of volunteers for 2 important fundraising events. As a charity they are reliant upon the success of their events to provide much needed funds and are desparately looking for volunteers to help at their popular Stockport Beer & Cider Festival from 29th to 31st May and the famous annual Duck Race.
STOCKPORT BEER AND CIDER FESTIVAL
The festival is held at Edgeley Park and attracts 7,000 people over the 3 days. It is a fantastic fun and busy event to be part of and as the chosen charity, raising money there, we need lots of help behind our bar and fundraising Last year we raised nearly £7,000!

Bramhall and Woodford Rotary Duck Race
Again, this is one of Stockport’s biggest events. A family fun day with music and stalls all day, and of course, the duck races themselves, set throughout the beautiful, Bramhall Park. We are joint charity for this event, with half the proceeds going to us and half to another good local cause, Beacon Counselling.
Sunday 18th May at Bramhall Park
We need relatively fit people for set up or take down. You will be putting up gazebos, carrying tables etc., nothing too strenuous. Set up is 8am-11am and take down is 4pm-6.30pm – you’re free to enjoy the rest of the day!
