The opportunity to travel with HCPT 710 as a Volunteer Helper to Lourdes in France - Easter 2024. Travelling for a week, 710 support the Pilgrimage and assist in ensuring the children who are taken have the best week.
The week revolves around the children, whilst we never knoe what we will end up doing until just before we go, the below is a rough idea of jobs we get involved in:
- airport duty - assisting groups with children on to the coaches and to the hotels
- setting up the activity areas, shop and closing at the end of the week
- working in the activity areas
- setting up masses
- support with music in masses
- marshalling and leading events
- supporting family groups
- other jobs to assist with the running of the week
