Come and be part of the joyful community of volunteers who help bring the Convention and year-round events to life. Whether it’s offering a warm welcome, supporting operations, serving in the café, or investing in children and young people, every role is an opportunity to reflect God’s goodness and be part of something bigger.
Explore the opportunities below and discover how you can play your part.
If you love Jesus, and you're over 18 (or over 20 for Youth Team), and you'd like to give your energy and skills during Convention week (whether full-time or part-time), we'd love you to consider volunteering. Serving at the Convention is a great way to respond to God's goodness and be part of what he's doing among us. Some roles require an enhanced DBS check, and you'll need to be eligible to serve in the UK, as we're unable to assist with visa applications.
Once you've found a team you'd like to apply to, take a moment to explore the role description, choose the weeks you'd like to serve, and fill out the online application. After you apply, you'll receive an email confirmation, and we'll begin reviewing your application and contacting your references. This usually takes around 4 to 6 weeks. If you're accepted, we'll be in touch, and you'll receive all the details at the start of June.
If you love meeting people and being right at the heart of the action, consider joining one of our Around Site teams. Our Around Site teams are the friendly faces that keep things running smoothly. From giving a warm welcome and helping guests find their way, to serving in the café or supporting our busy reception desks, you'll be part of a hands-on, practical team that helps the Convention operate efficiently and ensures a warm, friendly atmosphere throughout the week.
A lot goes on behind the scenes to ensure the Convention runs smoothly.. If you're up for getting stuck into practical tasks with a hardworking, friendly crew, we'd love your help behind the scenes. From preparing meals, to setting up venues, to running sound and video equipment, come and be part of something bigger than yourself, knowing that your faithful efforts are helping every attendee have a great week.
If you have a love for children and young people, come and use your gifts to serve on our Kids & Youth teams and encourage them to live for him. You'll help to nurture safe, fun, and welcoming spaces where every child can have lots of fun, engage with the living word of God, and grow in their faith. From teaching, leading small groups, running games and activities, or supporting children with additional needs, there's a place for you. Serving on the Kids & Youth team is a hands-on, rewarding way to respond to God's goodness in your life and to pass on the joy of your faith to the next generation. Additional Needs, Kids & Youth volunteers are required to attend the Kids & Youth training day on Saturday 9 May 2026, 10-4pm in Nottingham.
The Keswick Convention is brought to life each year through the joyful generosity of volunteers who give their time- and you don’t have to serve full-time to be part of it, too. If you’d like to try volunteering, even in a small way, or if you’re taking a pause from full-time serving but still want to share in what God is doing, our part-time roles mean you can serve with gladness for just a few hours each day. To apply, complete the volunteer application form and select the part-time role that interests you. We can’t offer accommodation, meals, or travel reimbursement for part-time volunteers.

“Working as part of the Keswick Ministries team has been really life-changing for me; starting each day with devotions, working within the Volunteers team and seeing how servant-hearted so many people are to give their time so freely, and being a small cog in a big wheel to help enable the gospel to be shared is honestly a joy.”
